Denied
The Board denied service connection for a foot disorder (bilateral plantar fasciitis) and a nerve disorder of the right upper extremity (cervical radiculopathy), as there was no evidence of current disability during the appeal period.
The deciding factor: There is no competent medical evidence showing a diagnosis of bilateral plantar fasciitis or cervical radiculopathy, and the Veteran has refused to attend VA examinations for these claims.
