Denied
The Board denied service connection for PTSD, non-allergic rhinitis, right hip strain, IBS, and tinnitus. The claims for increased ratings were also denied.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not meet the criteria for a higher rating or service connection as they were either not present, insufficient in severity, or not shown to be related to service.
