Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for service connection for chronic sinusitis is remanded due to a duty to assist error.
The deciding factor: The April 2025 VA examiner did not address the Veteran's statements regarding continuity of sinusitis symptoms since service, and an addendum opinion is needed to consider these statements.
