Denied
The Board denied service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia as the evidence did not show a current diagnosis of either condition during or approximate to the pendency of the claims.
The deciding factor: The VA examiners determined that there was no objective evidence supporting a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia, and therefore, a nexus could not be established.
