The Board has determined that the veteran does not currently have a disability or disease manifested by sinus bradycardia and therefore, service connection for this condition is denied.
The deciding factor: There is no current diagnosis of a cardiovascular disability related to the veteran's sinus bradycardia in her post-service medical records.
