Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for various conditions, including erectile dysfunction, PTSD, depression, frequent urination, intermetatarsal neuroma right foot, left knee condition, right knee condition, low back strain, shoulder strain, and tinnitus, due to a failure to provide necessary examinations.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that the Veteran's failure to appear at scheduled VA examinations without adequate accommodation constitutes a duty to assist error which must be corrected on remand.
