Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to service connection for a cervical spine condition and pain and numbness of the bilateral upper extremities as secondary to each other, due to unaddressed questions in previous opinions.
The deciding factor: The Board requires more information to determine if there was a pre-existing neck condition or symptoms consistent with active service that continued after service, which could be related to the current conditions.
