Denied
The Board denied a rating in excess of 30 percent for migraines, as the evidence did not show very frequent, completely prostrating, and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability.
The deciding factor: The March, September, and November 2023 VA examiners concluded that the Veteran's reported and observed symptomatology did not rise to the level of completely prostrating attacks with severe economic impact.
