Partly grantedPACT Act
The Veteran's claim for service connection for fibromyalgia was denied. The claims for right knee strain, left knee strain, and cervical strain were remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence persuasively weighs against finding that the Veteran has objective indications of a qualifying chronic disability, including an undiagnosed illness or a medically unexplained chronic multi-symptom illness.
