The appeals for service connection for anemia, left and right foot conditions (swelling bilateral feet), prostate issues, tension headaches and head injury with short term memory loss and blurred vision, and vertigo were dismissed as the Veteran withdrew them. The claims for readjudication of tension headaches and head injury with short term memory loss and blurred vision and vertigo will be considered based on new evidence submitted.

The deciding factor: The appeals were withdrawn by the Veteran's authorized representative, and no service connection was established due to the lack of a direct link between the claimed conditions and the Veteran's active duty service.
