Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for migraine headaches and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as the evidence did not support a finding of severe economic inadaptability or occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, respectively.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran's symptoms were either producing or capable of producing severe economic inadaptability for migraine headaches or occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas for PTSD.
