Partly granted
The appeal for service connection for acquired psychological disorders was dismissed, while service connection was granted for allergic rhinitis and pain of the left shoulder, lumbar spine, and cervical and cervicothoracic regions. The claim for bilateral hearing loss was denied, as well as a higher rating for chronic sinusitis.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's claims were decided based on the evidence provided, including medical opinions and service records, which supported some but not all of his claims for service connection.
