If I am diagnosed with Sinusitis, which is connected as Presumptive condition due to Burn Pit exposures. Can I also link associated Migraines with the Sinusitis episodes?
If I take Zyrtec and Flonase to compat Sinusitis conditions, so Migraines no longer appear as servere, does that decrease my rating for Sinusitis and Migraines?
Or, do you get rated on Migraines/Sinusitis based on your symptoms as if you were not on medications?
I guess the real question I am having is... If symptoms are reduced by taking medication, do you recieve a leower VA rating than if you were not taking the medications or the medications were not effective?
Also, would migraines appear as a secondary to Sinusitis? Or would it just be included within the Sinusitis rating?

They could always submit an intent to file at the same time or right after for it. Unless the VA totally hoses up the initial claim, at least they might have the potential for decent retro. However, I
