Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claims for service connection for sinusitis, allergic rhinitis, hypertension, and headaches. The Board found that the VA examinations were inadequate and required additional medical opinions.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the VA examinations did not adequately address the claimed conditions and their potential link to service, including exposure to herbicide agents.
