Partly granted
Service connection for an elbow disorder is denied. The claim for a left shoulder disorder is remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not have a current disability related to the elbow disorder at any time proximate to his claim, and there was no recent diagnosis prior to filing the claim.
