Denied
The Board denied service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome because the evidence did not show a current diagnosis or that the veteran had an undiagnosed illness manifested by fatigue.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence of record does not reflect a diagnosis of CFS, nor a finding that he has a medically unexplained chronic multi symptom illness manifested by fatigue.
