Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a higher evaluation for post-concussive tension headaches, as the evidence did not show characteristic prostrating attacks occurring on an average once a month over the last several months.
The deciding factor: The deciding factor was that the Veteran experienced characteristic prostrating attacks averaging one in two months, which did not meet the criteria for a higher 30 percent rating.
