Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a VA addendum opinion to assess whether the Veteran's service-connected sinusitis and left adrenal nodule disorders are at least as likely as not a 'but-for' cause of her migraine headaches.
The deciding factor: The current evidence is insufficient to establish a nexus between the Veteran's service-connected conditions and her migraine headaches, necessitating further medical opinion in accordance with recent legal standards.
