Denied
The Board denied a higher disability rating for migraine headaches and female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD), as the Veteran's symptoms did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's migraines more nearly approximated characteristic prostrating attacks occurring on average once a month, which corresponds to a 30 percent rating. For FSAD, the maximum schedular rating of 0 percent was already in place and no other alternative criteria warranted a compensable rating.
