Granted
The Board granted an initial 100 percent rating for Meniere's syndrome with tinnitus, finding that the Veteran's symptoms more closely approximate hearing impairment with attacks of vertigo and cerebellar gait occurring more than once weekly.
The deciding factor: The evidence demonstrated severe symptoms including tinnitus, hearing loss, debilitating migraines, and frequent, incapacitating episodes of vertigo, warranting a 100 percent rating under DC 6205.
