The Board denied service connection for asthma, a sexually transmitted disease (STD), an acquired psychiatric disorder, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as there was no evidence of current diagnoses or in-service incurrence.

The deciding factor: The lack of a current diagnosis and the absence of evidence linking any condition to military service were the deciding factors.
