Partly granted
The Board denied an initial compensable rating for bilateral ovarian cysts, granted a 10 percent rating for right and left foot hallux valgus, dismissed the claim for a 10 percent rating based on multiple noncompensable disabilities as moot, and denied service connection for tinnitus, right hip disorder with bursitis, left hip disorder with bursitis, right knee disorder, left knee disorder, and arthritis, degenerative, left.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating or service connection due to lack of evidence supporting such claims.
