Sinusitis - currently at 0% but has worsened

[Hogfan1978]

Hi,

I was active duty from 2001 to 2008. I was given a SC of 0% for sinusitis back in 2016 based sinusitis being detected by x-ray only. I did not appeal the decision. This past year, I decided to start going to the doctor when my sinuses got bad instead of just toughing it out, in order to document the issues. I’m getting over a sinus infection now and was prescribed meds and antibiotics by my PCP last week. My med record from last week calls it “acute sinusitis”. 
 

My plan is to document the occurrences over the next year with my primary care physician.  Once I have those medical records documented of three or more non-incapacitating episodes, I can submit a claim for an increase….right?
 

Am I missing anything? Any other advice from fellow vets?

Check to see if you fall under PACT, it may be presumptive now
