The Board granted service connection for angioneurotic edema and remanded the claim for a compensable rating for allergic rhinitis.
The deciding factor: The private medical opinion provided a more probative nexus between the Veteran's in-service symptoms and his current condition, outweighing the VA examiner's negative opinions.
