Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for GERD, allergic rhinitis, and right knee limitation of flexion as there was no evidence of considerable impairment of health or significant functional impact.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms did not meet the criteria for a higher rating under applicable diagnostic codes due to their infrequency and lack of significant impact on overall health and daily functioning.
