Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for an earlier effective date for a 70% PTSD rating and for a compensable rating for nephrolithiasis.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support an increase in disability severity prior to the claim filing date or meet the criteria for a compensable rating for nephrolithiasis.
