Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for a compensable rating for migraine headaches and service connection for tinnitus, as there was no evidence of characteristic prostrating attacks or a current diagnosis of tinnitus, respectively.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating for migraines due to the absence of characteristic prostrating attacks, and he did not have a current disability of tinnitus.
