Denied
The Board denied service connection for a seizure disorder, headache disorder, and acquired psychiatric disorder as the evidence did not support a direct or secondary relationship to military service.
The deciding factor: The medical evidence did not establish a link between the current conditions and the Veteran's military service due to lack of continuity of symptoms and no confirmed diagnosis until many years after service.
