Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a compensable initial rating for sinusitis, as there was no evidence of at least 3 non-incapacitating episodes or one incapacitating episode per year during the review period.
The deciding factor: The VA treatment records and examination did not show that the Veteran had the required number of episodes of sinusitis to warrant a compensable rating under the General Rating Formula for Sinusitis.
