Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for service connection of Parkinsonism due to herbicide exposure is remanded. The Board needs more medical evidence.
The deciding factor: The August 2021 VA examination report was insufficient because it did not address a Parkinsonism diagnosis or the Veteran's essential tremor.
