Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for vertigo to correct a duty to assist error regarding an inadequate medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The January 2025 VA examiner did not address the Veteran's VA treatment records and did not provide a medical opinion on aggravation by service-connected tinnitus.
