Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for erectile dysfunction and headaches due to a need for additional VA examinations.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's work schedule and lack of contact before scheduled VA examinations provide good cause for rescheduling, and an opinion regarding toxic exposure risk activity (TERA) is required given his presumptive exposure during service in the Persian Gulf.
