Partly granted
The veteran's service-connected headaches are rated at 50% but the claim for total disability due to individual unemployability (TDIU) is denied.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the veteran's headaches meet the criteria for a 50 percent rating but did not qualify for TDIU because the veteran remained employed during the relevant period.
