Denied
The Board denied a compensable evaluation for the service-connected headache disability, finding that the Veteran's migraines did not meet the criteria for a 10 percent rating.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed less frequent attacks of headaches without characteristic prostrating attacks averaging one in two months over the last several months.
