Partly granted
The Board granted an initial disability rating of 50 percent for migraine headaches and 30 percent for celiac disease, while remanding the issue of a compensable rating for exercise induced urticaria.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's migraine attacks are very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged causing severe economic inadaptability. The Veteran's celiac disease manifested with symptoms of diarrhea and more or less constant abdominal distress.
