Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for an initial compensable rating for tension headaches, service connection for residuals of head injury, to include TBI, a right shoulder condition, and hemorrhoids.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the presence of characteristic prostrating attacks for the tension headache disability, nor was there sufficient evidence to establish service connection for any of the other conditions claimed.
