Partly granted
The Veteran's service-connected migraine headaches are granted a 50 percent rating, while his chronic maxillary and frontal sinusitis is denied an initial compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran experiences very frequent completely prostrating migraines productive of severe economic inadaptability, meeting the criteria for a 50 percent rating. However, there is no evidence supporting a compensable rating for chronic maxillary and frontal sinusitis during the appeal period.
