Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a higher initial evaluation for migraines, finding that the evidence did not support a rating in excess of 30 percent.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's migraine attacks were not very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged to be productive of severe economic inadaptability, thus not warranting a higher rating under Diagnostic Code 8100.
