Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for migraine headaches as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected PTSD and remanded several other claims for further development.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on a nexus between the Veteran's PTSD and her migraines, while other claims were remanded due to insufficient evidence or medical opinions.
