Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for an elbow disability and a right wrist disability to obtain additional medical evidence, specifically addressing whether these disabilities are secondary to the Veteran's service-connected right shoulder disability.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to inadequate VA negative nexus opinions and to clarify the Veteran's claimed conditions.
