Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for service connection for a headache disability, claimed as migraine headaches, to correct a pre-decisional error in fulfilling VA's duty to assist.
The deciding factor: The June 2023 VA examination is found inadequate due to lack of clinical testing and incongruence with the Veteran's subjective reports.
