Granted
The Board granted service connection for migraines, finding that they are secondary to the Veteran's service-connected tinnitus.
The deciding factor: The private opinion in June 2022 was found persuasive as it considered the Veteran's relevant medical history and provided a thorough rationale, establishing a causal relationship between the current disability and the service-connected condition.
