Denied
The Board denied service connection for a right lower extremity nerve condition, to include radiculopathy and diabetic neuropathy, as secondary to the Veteran's lumbar spine disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not support a finding that the Veteran's right lower extremity diabetic neuropathy is related to his service-connected lumbar spine disability.
