Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claims for service connection and increased rating, as well as the claim for TDIU, to provide further development of evidence.
The deciding factor: The VA examinations provided were inadequate to adjudicate the claims due to lack of supporting rationale or accurate medical history. Further examination is required to address these issues adequately.
