Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 30 percent for a headache disability and entitlement to a rating of total disability based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to errors in the previous decision.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary as the Board erred in providing inadequate reasons and bases regarding the evaluation of headaches, specifically concerning the definition of 'very frequent' and the ameliorative effects of medications.
