Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for loss of teeth, migraines, pituitary tumors, Vitamin D deficiency, degenerative disc disease, and an intestinal disorder due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
The deciding factor: Remand is required as the AOJ failed to obtain VA examinations for the Veteran's claimed disorders, which is a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
