Partly granted
The Board granted an earlier effective date for the grant of service connection for migraines from January 10, 2024, and denied a higher initial disability rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's migraine attacks do not meet the criteria for a higher rating as they are not completely prostrating and prolonged to be productive of severe economic inadaptability.
