Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for compensation under 38 USC 1151 for left upper extremity nerve damage and left shoulder drooping with bursitis and pain due to a faulty administration of a vaccination.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner's opinion was found inadequate, and additional medical evidence is needed to address the Veteran's contention that his left shoulder disabilities were caused by the incorrect administration of a vaccination.
