Partly granted
The Board denied a compensable rating for allergic rhinitis and remanded the claim for service connection for an acquired psychiatric condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show greater than 50 percent obstruction of the nasal passages on both sides or complete obstruction on one side, nor was there any indication of nasal polyps. For the psychiatric claim, the Board found insufficient evidence to establish a current diagnosis and a link to service.
