Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a lumbar spine disability, a cervical spine disability, and right ear hearing loss but denied service connection for sinusitis. The left ear hearing loss claim was remanded.
The deciding factor: The appellant's lumbar spine and cervical spine disabilities were incurred during her active service, while the evidence did not support a current chronic sinusitis disability or left ear hearing loss in service.
