Partly granted
The veteran's claims for higher ratings for left wrist tendinitis and left knee patellofemoral pain syndrome, as well as service connection for PTSD and shin pain, were denied. Claims for service connection for other conditions were remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence did not support a higher rating or service connection for the claimed conditions.
