The Board denied a disability rating greater than 10 percent for both asthma and sinusitis.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's asthma was manifested by the need for intermittent inhalational bronchodilator therapy, and his sinusitis had two incapacitating episodes per year requiring prolonged antibiotic treatment. These findings did not meet the criteria for a higher rating under the applicable diagnostic codes.
