Denied
The Board denied service connection for migraine headaches as there is insufficient evidence to establish the presence of a current disability.
The deciding factor: The lack of medical evidence showing a current headache or migraine headache disability and the Veteran's lay assertions not describing functional impairment led to the denial of the claim.
