Partly granted
The Board denied an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for allergic rhinitis and remanded the issue of entitlement to service connection for coronary artery disease.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a higher rating for allergic rhinitis, as there was no evidence of polyps. The remand was necessary due to an inadequate VA medical opinion regarding the etiology of the Veteran's coronary artery disease.
