Denied
The Board denied an initial compensable rating for headaches as the Veteran did not experience characteristic prostrating attacks.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record, including a VA examination, did not show that the Veteran experienced characteristic prostrating attacks necessary to warrant a 10 percent rating under DC 8100.
