Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a heart condition secondary to service-connected duodenal ulcer with anemia due to insufficient evidence and the need for additional medical opinions.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to inadequate medical opinion and missing private medical records that could provide relevant information regarding the etiology of the Veteran's heart condition.
