Granted
The Board granted a rating of 30 percent, but no higher, for the Veteran's service-connected gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
The deciding factor: The evidence showed persistently recurrent epigastric distress with dysphagia, pyrosis, and regurgitation accompanied by substernal or arm or shoulder pain, which produced considerable impairment of health.
