Partly granted
The Board granted the restoration of a 30 percent evaluation for dermatophytosis, onychomycosis, and calluses of the feet due to an improper reduction. The claim for service connection for GERD was remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the improper reduction of the rating for dermatophytosis, onychomycosis, and calluses of the feet, as it did not consider sustained improvement over 20 years. The GERD claim was remanded due to a need for a VA examination.
