Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a new examination to address the Veteran's migraines, considering her service as a Persian Gulf veteran and potential toxic exposures.
The deciding factor: The September 2023 VA opinions are inadequate due to pre-decisional duty to assist errors regarding the Veteran's conceded in-service toxic exposures and the possibility of aggravation by her service-connected PTSD.
