The Board denied service connection for bilateral shoulder pain, right and left lower extremity pain, and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) as the evidence did not support a current disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not show that the Veteran has had a bilateral shoulder or lower extremity disability at any time during the pendency of this appeal, and there is no competent medical evidence to establish a nexus between her claimed disabilities and service. For PSVT, the Board found that the criteria for a compensable rating were not met as the Veteran's symptoms did not meet the required documentation standards.
