Denied
The Board denied service connection for ischemic heart disease, finding no credible evidence of a current disability during the Veteran's lifetime.
The deciding factor: The Board found that extensive medical testing concluded there was no diagnosis of ischemic heart disease, and thus, service connection cannot be granted.
