Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for a disability rating in excess of 30 percent for status-post Grave's disease with residual hypothyroidism and in excess of 50 percent for an acquired psychiatric disorder, due to further development needed.
The deciding factor: Further development is necessary to address the conflicts in the evidence regarding the symptoms attributed to the Veteran's Graves' disease condition and other conditions, as well as to properly analyze where overlapping symptoms are most appropriately compensated.
