Denied
The Board denied service connection for verruca vulgaris, irritable bowel syndrome, and an initial compensable disability rating for tension headaches as the evidence did not support a current diagnosis of these conditions or symptoms that met the criteria for service connection.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show a current diagnosis of warts, IBS, or prostrating attacks of tension headaches during the review period on appeal, and thus service connection was denied.
