Denied
The Board denied compensation under 38 U.S.C. § 1151 for an additional disability (residuals of a stroke) allegedly caused by testosterone replacement therapy at the VA Medical Center in Hutchinson and Wichita, Kansas.
The deciding factor: The January 2021 opinion found that it was less likely than not that the Veteran's stroke was caused by or worsened as a result of VA negligence, and that the treatment was appropriate and followed accepted protocols.
