Denied
The Board denied service connection for depression and an initial disability rating in excess of 30 percent for migraines.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a separate diagnosis of depression, nor did it indicate that the Veteran's migraine attacks were very frequent, completely prostrating, prolonged, and productive of severe economic inadaptability.
