Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for adjustment disorder with anxiety and depression, panic disorder, and bilateral hearing loss to ensure that the Veteran receives a VA examination.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record indicates that there may be a nexus between the Veteran's claimed symptoms and his military service, but an adequate medical opinion is not available.
