Granted
The Board granted a rating of 10 percent for chronic sinusitis and 30 percent for migraine headaches, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported three to six non-incapacitating episodes per year of sinusitis characterized by headaches, pain, and purulent discharge or crusting, and characteristic prostrating attacks occurring on average once a month over the last several months for migraine headaches.
