Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for an initial disability rating in excess of 10 percent for thoracolumbar strain and a compensable rating for migraine headaches to ensure all relevant evidence is considered.
The deciding factor: Further development is necessary to adequately adjudicate the Veteran's claims, including obtaining updated VA treatment records and readjudicating the case with new evidence.
