23498 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for spasmodic torticolis and operational service for the clinical worsening of spasmodic torticolis.
or
23499 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for spasmodic torticolis and eligible service for the clinical worsening of spasmodic torticolis.
Clinical worsening and operational service [23498]
