The Board granted service connection for erectile dysfunction, IBS, a left hip disorder, a left shin splint disorder, a left wrist disorder, and sleep apnea. The claims for service connection for a low back disorder, TBI, left hamstring disorder, migraine headache disorder, right hamstring disorder, right hip disorder, right shin splint disorder, and right wrist disorder were denied.

The deciding factor: The weight of the evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran had current diagnoses or manifestations of the claimed disorders during his military service or that they originated from such service.
