The Board denied an initial compensable rating for erectile dysfunction and dismissed service connection for functional abdominal pain syndrome with abdominal pain and bloating. The claims for sleep apnea, right lower extremity restless leg syndrome, and left lower extremity restless leg syndrome were remanded.

The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a compensable rating for erectile dysfunction or establish service connection for the claimed conditions due to lack of current diagnosis or nexus to service.
