Partly granted
The Board denied a compensable rating for chronic urticaria and a rating more than 10 percent for bilateral plantar fasciitis, while remanding claims for service connection for heart disease, anxiety condition, back strain, bilateral shin splints, left knee condition, right knee condition, left shoulder condition, and right shoulder condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support an increased rating for chronic urticaria or plantar fasciitis, while the remanded claims required further development to establish a link between the claimed conditions and service.
