Remanded (sent back)
The appeal was dismissed as moot for the issue of an earlier effective date for service connection for CIDP of the right lower extremity (sciatic nerve branch) due to a fully favorable AOJ decision. The remaining issues are remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The examination reports did not provide sufficient detail and failed to reconcile findings with private medical records, necessitating a remand for additional evidence.
