Partly granted
The Board granted an initial rating of 30 percent for headaches and 10 percent for left and right hand tremors, but denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported the severity of the Veteran's headaches and tremors, but not the presence of a diagnosis of right ear hearing loss or the necessary link to service for bilateral hearing loss.
