Granted
The Board granted an initial rating of 50 percent for migraines, as the Veteran's symptoms have been productive of completely prostrating and prolonged attacks that are severely economically disabling.
The deciding factor: The evidence shows the Veteran had migraines with completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability throughout the period on review, warranting a 50 percent rating under DC 8100.
