Partly granted
The Board denied the veteran's claims for an earlier effective date and higher ratings for tension headaches but remanded the claim for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the lack of evidence supporting the veteran's contentions and the regulatory requirements for service connection and rating.
