Denied
The Board denied an initial compensable rating for the Veteran's service-connected hypothyroidism as there was no evidence of compensable symptoms or manifestations.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating under the applicable diagnostic code, as he had no findings, signs, or symptoms attributable to his thyroid condition or its treatment.
