Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for IBS and esophageal achalasia but remanded decisions on Crohn's disease, constant urination, hypertension, bruxism, degenerative disc disease, low back condition, and neck condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence persuasively weighs against finding that the Veteran has had IBS or esophageal achalasia at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
