The Board granted service connection for frequent urination as secondary to hypertension and remanded the claims for a compensable disability evaluation for an aortic aneurysm and TDIU.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran, considering his medications used to treat his service-connected hypertension as causing his frequent urination.
