Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for chronic cough disorder, as there was no evidence of a separate and distinct chronic cough disorder from his service-connected asthma.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a diagnosis of a chronic cough disorder that is separate and distinct from the Veteran's underlying, service-connected asthma disability.
