Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for an increased rating for post epididymitis pain syndrome to obtain additional evidence, including private treatment records and a new VA examination.
The deciding factor: The AOJ's failure to obtain relevant private treatment records is a pre-decisional duty to assist error, requiring a remand.
