Denied
The Board denied service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome, swollen lymph nodes, sinusitis, hypercalciuria, and a functional gastrointestinal disorder as the evidence did not support a finding of current disability or nexus to service.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran had objective signs of related disability perceptible to an examining physician at any time during or approximate to the pendency of the claim.
