Denied
The Board denied service connection for all claimed conditions, including PTSD, anxiety, athletes foot, dehydration, gastrointestinal issues, left knee disability, left ankle strain, left foot pain, low back disability, insomnia, and suicidal ideation. The Veteran's in-service experiences were not corroborated or related to hostile military activity.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran does not experience any current disability due to her claimed conditions which could be attributed to active service or any incident of service.
