Granted
The Board granted service connection for essential tremors, finding a causal relationship between the condition and the Veteran's exposure to herbicide agents, including Agent Orange.
The deciding factor: The September 2024 VA opinion was found more persuasive than the October 2024 opinion due to its clear and unequivocal findings based on relevant information and medical literature.
