The Board denied service connection for psoriasis, chronic kidney disease, veinous insufficiency, and diabetes due to a lack of evidence showing these conditions were incurred in or aggravated by the Veteran's military service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that any of the claimed conditions were related to the Veteran's service, as there was no documentation of such conditions during service and they were not shown until many years after discharge. Additionally, there was no evidence linking these conditions to an in-service event or exposure.
