Granted
The veteran's service connection for migraine headaches and entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities were granted.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported the veteran's current disability of migraine headaches and their inability to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation due to service-connected disabilities.
