Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for allergic rhinitis to obtain an adequate medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The July 2024 VA examiner's opinions were found inadequate due to their failure to address the Veteran's lay statements and the repeated nature of her in-service treatment for allergic rhinitis, as well as the need to provide an opinion on aggravation by service-connected sinusitis.
