Granted
The veteran's claim for service connection of migraine headaches was granted. The decision was based on the continuity of symptoms and the veteran's credible statements.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's lay statements regarding continuity of symptomatology have greater probative value than the inadequate VA medical opinions and are corroborated by persuasive buddy statements from coworkers.
