Denied
The Board denied service connection for a respiratory condition claimed as shortness of breath, sinusitis, and an initial compensable rating for allergic rhinitis.
The deciding factor: There was no credible evidence to support any finding of a current diagnosis of the claimed conditions, and the Veteran's symptoms were related to her service-connected allergic rhinitis.
