Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for a gastrointestinal disability claimed as nausea and vomiting, finding that her symptoms are associated with her service-connected post-traumatic headaches.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's nausea and vomiting are not separate and distinct disabilities but rather symptoms of her service-connected post-traumatic headaches associated with traumatic brain injury.
