Denied
The Board denied service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), finding that the Veteran does not have CFS and that his reported symptoms are attributed to known diagnosed conditions, including his service-connected posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
The deciding factor: The evidence of record does not show a separate diagnosis for CFS during the appeal period, and the Veteran's fatigue and related symptoms have been attributed to his service-connected PTSD.
