Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for a higher rating for the thyroid condition is remanded due to an inadequate VA examination.
The deciding factor: The Board found the December 2023 VA examination inadequate as it did not adequately report the Veteran's current symptoms and failed to address pertinent evidence of record, including notes of confusion, constipation, and weight gain.
