Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an initial evaluation of 50 percent for service-connected migraine headaches, finding that the evidence did not support a rating higher than 30 percent.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's symptoms did not meet the criteria for a 50 percent rating as there was no evidence of very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability.
