Denied
The Board denied service connection for heart problem, sleep apnea, diabetes, stroke, tinnitus, GERD, and hypertension as new and relevant evidence was not received to support the claims.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's assertions were not supported by the evidence in her service treatment records, and there was no continuity of symptoms or medical nexus established for any of the conditions claimed.
