Question
shag
this may need to be read twice. It is from a vet's remand from the BVA. Accordingly, the case is REMANDED for the following action: 1. The AMC should send the Veteran's claims folder to the examiner who conducted the April 2004 and December 2004 VA heart examinations, or if the examiner is no longer available, a suitable replacement, to request that he prepare an addendum to his report. The Veteran need not be re-examined unless an examination is deemed necessary. If a physical examination is deemed necessary, all indicated testing should be accomplished. The claims files should be made available to and reviewed by the examiner. With reference to supporting data, the examiner is asked to offer a complete rationale for his opinions, expressed in the examinations referenced above, that it is less likely than not that the Veteran's hypertension or heart disease are related to or aggravated by the Veteran's service-connected PTSD. Hard to believe that one.
