Partly granted
The veteran's headaches are granted a 50% rating. Other issues related to Crohn's disease, lumbar strain, left knee strain, and TDIU are remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The Board concluded that the veteran's headaches manifest in very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability when excluding the ameliorative effects from treatment.
