Partly granted
The Veteran was granted a 50 percent rating for migraines, effective January 7, 2024. The earlier effective date claim and TDIU appeal were denied.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's migraine attacks are characterized as very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged, productive of severe economic inadaptability, warranting a 50 percent rating under DC 8100.
