Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for a new VA examination to determine the severity of the Veteran's headache disability from June 2021 to the present.
The deciding factor: The July 2021 VA examination is found inadequate as it relied solely on treatment records prior to the rating period on appeal, and the Veteran submitted evidence showing he experienced headaches in September and October 2021.
