Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for GERD as it was aggravated by the Veteran's service-connected disabilities, but denied service connection for ED due to a lack of evidence showing a current diagnosis. The issue of entitlement to service connection for anxiety is remanded.
The deciding factor: Service connection for GERD was granted based on aggravation by service-connected conditions; ED was denied as there was no evidence of a current disability, and the anxiety claim was remanded due to insufficient medical evidence regarding its etiology.
