Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a cervical spine disability, an acquired psychiatric disorder, migraine headaches, and a brain aneurysm due to the need for additional evidence.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary as the current medical opinion does not specifically address whether the Veteran's cervical spine disability is aggravated by his service-connected back disability, which could impact decisions on other claims.
