Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded all service connection claims for diabetes type 2, hypothyroidism, lupus, migraine headaches, and residuals of hysterectomy. The Veteran's claims are related to her service-connected PTSD.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the VA examiner's nexus opinions were inadequate and that the AOJ failed to obtain opinions regarding secondary service connection.
