The Board granted a 50 percent rating for migraine headaches from June 14, 2023, based on the Veteran's reported functional impairment equivalent to very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least in approximate balance as to whether a 50 percent rating for migraines is warranted from June 14, 2023, due to the Veteran's reported functional impairment equivalent to very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability.
