Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a medical examination to determine the current severity of the Veteran's headaches and to estimate their severity prior to the onset of his service-connected PTSD.
The deciding factor: The record is not adequate to rate the Veteran's headaches consistent with section 3.310(b) due to a lack of baseline level of severity before the onset of PTSD.
