Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for service connection of an acquired psychiatric disorder, including depression and anxiety, is remanded. The Board needs more medical evidence to decide the case.
The deciding factor: The VA examination was inadequate because it lacked a medical opinion on the nature and etiology of the Veteran's condition.
