Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for Meniere's disease and migraines to obtain additional medical opinions regarding their etiology, specifically addressing whether they were caused or aggravated by the Veteran's service-connected conditions.
The deciding factor: The July 2024 VA medical opinions are inadequate as they utilized an incorrect standard in rendering their opinion and failed to discuss whether the Veteran's service-connected disabilities aggravated his Meniere's disease and migraines, respectively.
