Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for GERD, colitis, and asthma as further development is needed to obtain adequate medical opinions.
The deciding factor: The VA medical opinions provided are inadequate due to unclear rationale or failure to address all necessary elements of secondary service connection, including causation and aggravation, and a remand is required to correct these errors.
