The Veteran's claims for service connection for right and left upper extremity parasthesia are being remanded due to the need for VCAA notice, a new VA examination, and consideration of all theories of entitlement.
The deciding factor: The case is being remanded because the Veteran has not received proper VCAA notification regarding his claims for service connection for undiagnosed illness or other qualifying chronic disability, pursuant to 38 U.S.C.A. � 1117, and a new VA examination is needed to determine the nature and etiology of his claimed conditions.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
