	Asthenia
		Asthenia and its opposite, vigor, are familiar to all of us.

		There are some correctable causes of asthenia that are familiar to most clinicians.

		She contends that the veteran's service-connected neurocirculatory asthenia manifested by tachycardia, precordial pain, shortness of breath on exertion as well as chronic rhinitis contributed significantly towards the veteran's untimely death.
		Neurocirculatory asthenia is the syndrome characterized by palpitations, dyspnea, a sense of fatigue, fear of effort, and discomfort brought on by exercise or even slight effort.
		Therefore, we are unable to find that the neurocirculatory asthenia resulted in debilitating effects and general impairment to health to the extent that the veteran was rendered materially less capable of resisting the effects of organic heart disease.

	Asthenia/Fatigue
		Asthenia and fatigue occurs in 75-90% of cancer patients and may be experienced as general lack of energy, easy tiring, generalized weakness or mental tiredness.
		Education of the dying person and his/her loved ones that asthenia is a frequent occurrence at the end of life may decrease unrealistic attempts at exertion and attempts to motivate the patient to achieve unrealistic goals.
		It is important to determine severity and to consider the factors that worsen or relieve fatigue, to rule out the presence of treatable causes, and to assess the impact of fatigue on daily activities and quality of life.

		Generalized arthritis of multiple joints, including post- operative residuals of a bilateral hip joint replacement was not incurred in or aggravated by military service and may not be so presumed.
		The appellant's March 1946 separation examination was negative for any nervousness or cardiovascular disorders, and he was not diagnosed as having circulatory asthenia until 1978, thirty two years after his discharge from service.
		Therefore, it is the opinion of the Board that the appellant's circulatory asthenia was not incurred in service and entitlement to service connection for circulatory asthenia is not warranted.
