Partly grantedPACT Act
Service connection for migraines was granted. Service connection for tinnitus was dismissed because it had already been granted in an April 2024 rating decision. The claims for thyroid and menstrual disabilities were remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's migraine disability was incurred in or is otherwise the result of active service, based on evidence including a VA examiner's opinion and the Veteran's lay statements.
