Granted
The Board granted service connection for left lower extremity radiculopathy as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected back condition.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the Veteran's reports of symptoms and the VA examiner's opinion that his complaints are at least as likely as not secondary to his service-connected back condition, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
