The Board denied the claims for service connection for migraines, a right hip disability, and a left hip disability as there was no evidence of a current disability or a link to service.
The deciding factor: The September 2024 VA medical opinion found no relationship between the Veteran's migraines and his use of meloxicam for knee pain. The Board also found no evidence of chronic hip conditions, and concluded that the Veteran does not have the disabilities claimed at any time during the pendency of the claims.
