Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a rating in excess of 30 percent for mixed headaches, including tension headaches.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show 'very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability,' which is required for a higher rating under DC 8100.
