Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for a compensable rating for nephrolithiasis and service connection for vertigo, chronic fatigue syndrome, right shoulder osteoarthritis, and sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a current diagnosis of vertigo or chronic fatigue syndrome, and the Veteran's right shoulder and sleep apnea were unrelated to his military service.
