Partly granted
Service connection for dermatophytosis, GERD, and chemical sensitivity was denied. An effective date of March 15, 2023, was granted for other specified trauma and stressor-related disorder, but an initial evaluation in excess of 30 percent was denied. The claims for tremors and peripheral neuropathy were remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence persuasively weighs against a finding of current disability for dermatophytosis, GERD, and chemical sensitivity.
