Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to a disability rating in excess of 10 percent for right and left lower extremity radiculopathy due to an inadequate statement of reasons or bases.
The deciding factor: The Board erred by failing to adequately address whether the Veteran was entitled to ratings in excess of 10 percent for bilateral lower extremity radiculopathy, as evidenced by a private treatment record diagnosing the Veteran with bilateral sciatica.
