Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome, finding that there was no evidence of a current diagnosis and that his symptoms were attributable to other service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner found that the Veteran did not meet the criteria for a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome and that his reported symptoms were more likely related to his other service-connected conditions such as PTSD, sleep apnea, allergic rhinitis, and asthma with COPD.
