Denied
The Board denied the claim for a rating higher than 10 percent for GERD with nausea, finding that the Veteran's symptoms did not result in considerable impairment of health.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show considerable impairment of health due to GERD symptoms, and there was no indication of esophageal stricture requiring dilatation or causing other surgical interventions.
