The Board granted service connection for a sinus disability, to include allergic rhinitis and sinusitis, but denied a compensable rating for erectile dysfunction and dismissed the appeal for service connection for prostate cancer.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least evenly balanced as to whether the Veteran's sinus disability had its onset in active service, leading to the grant of service connection. However, the maximum schedular rating was already assigned for erectile dysfunction, and the appeal for prostate cancer was dismissed due to untimely submission.
