Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claims for an increased rating and TDIU due to a lumbar spine disability for further development, including obtaining updated medical records and scheduling new VA examinations.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examinations were found inadequate and the Veteran reported worsening symptoms since her last examination, necessitating new evaluations.
