Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for increased ratings for sinusitis and migraine headaches, finding that his symptoms did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's sinusitis had not manifested in incapacitating episodes or three or more non-incapacitating episodes per year, and his migraine headaches did not result in characteristic prostrating attacks averaging one in two months over several months.
