Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of entitlement to a disability rating in excess of 10 percent for left upper extremity peripheral neuropathy due to an inadequate VA examination.
The deciding factor: The November 2022 VA examiner's opinion is deemed inadequate as it does not address the Veteran's prior January 2012 VA examination findings and provide a comprehensive report on the severity of the Veteran's condition.
