Granted
The Board granted service connection for migraines secondary to the veteran's service-connected tinnitus. The decision was based on evidence showing that the migraines are at least as likely as not related to the tinnitus.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's migraines were aggravated or caused by his service-connected tinnitus, resolving all reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor.
