Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for left foot bursitis and coronary artery disease, as well as special monthly compensation based on housebound status.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not support a higher rating for either condition due to the severity of symptoms being less than required for a higher rating under applicable criteria.
