Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a compensable rating for nephrolithiasis because the evidence did not show the condition required more than two treatments per year or caused significant symptoms.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's nephrolithiasis has not been shown to necessitate diet therapy, drug therapy, or invasive or non-invasive procedures more than two times per year, and there is no evidence of colic or renal dysfunction.
