Granted
The Board granted an initial 30 percent disability rating for the Veteran's migraines, resolving any reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed characteristic prostrating attacks occurring on average once a month over the last several months, which met the criteria for a 30 percent rating under Diagnostic Code 8100.
