Partly granted
The veteran's claims for a higher rating for perforated left tympanic membrane and benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) were denied. The claim for an increased rating for allergic rhinitis was remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence did not support a higher rating for the perforated left tympanic membrane and BPPV, but remanded the allergic rhinitis claim due to inadequate examination.
