Denied
The Board denied service connection for sinusitis as there was no evidence of a current diagnosis of sinusitis during the appeal period.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner's opinion, which found no diagnosis of chronic sinusitis, was deemed highly probative and more credible than the Veteran's lay statements.
