Remanded (sent back)
The Board denied an increased rating for the Veteran's hiatal hernia, reflux disease, with diverticulosis and remanded claims for a compensable rating for sinusitis and service connection for vertigo.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a higher rating for the gastrointestinal disability, and further development was needed to clarify the nature of the claimed conditions and their relationship to military service.
