Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for service connection for sinusitis as there was no evidence of a current diagnosis during or near the period on appeal.
The deciding factor: The persuasive evidence of record does not show a diagnosis of sinusitis, and the Veteran is competent to report symptoms but lacks medical expertise to diagnose sinusitis.
