Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for multiple conditions to correct a duty to assist error by ensuring VA examinations are conducted.
The deciding factor: VA examinations are required due to a lack of medical evidence addressing the etiology of the Veteran's claimed conditions in relation to their active duty service, as well as to consider any post-service medical evidence specific to the Veteran that was not considered in previous opinions.
