Granted
The Board granted restoration of the 50 percent rating for migraine including migraine variants, as the reduction was improper due to a lack of actual improvement in the disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show improvement in the Veteran's ability to function under ordinary conditions of life and work, absent the ameliorating effects of medication.
