Partly granted
The veteran's claims for increased rating of migraine headaches and service connection for left knee, right knee, right hip, and syncope were denied. The claims for heart condition and bilateral pes planus with plantar fasciitis were remanded.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the veteran's claims for the denied issues, and remand was necessary due to duty to assist errors for the remanded issues.
