Partly granted
The Veteran's migraines were found to be severe enough to warrant a 50 percent disability rating, while the gastroparesis with cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) did not meet criteria for higher ratings.
The deciding factor: The severity of the Veteran's migraines met the criteria for a 50 percent rating due to very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability, while her gastroparesis with cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) did not meet the necessary criteria for higher ratings.
