Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case to schedule a VA examination for tinnitus due to an unfulfilled duty to assist.
The deciding factor: The Veteran was not afforded another opportunity for a VA examination after cancelling her initial appointment, and there is uncertainty regarding whether she wished to withdraw her appeal.
