Partly granted
The Board granted earlier effective dates for service connection of focal mild squamous epithelial dysplasia and condylomatous changes with atypical squamous metaplasia post total abdominal hysterectomy, gallbladder cholecystectomy, cholecystectomy scar, hypothyroidism, and special monthly compensation (SMC) based on anatomical loss of creative organ. Service connection for diabetes mellitus type II (DMII) and anemia was also granted.
The deciding factor: The probative evidence persuasively favored finding that the Veteran's DMII is at least as likely as not due to or the result of her service-connected hypothyroidism, and that the Veteran's anemia is at least as likely as not due to or the result of her service-connected hypothyroidism.
