Granted
The Board granted restoration of the 10 percent rating for GERD and an evaluation of 50 percent for migraine headaches.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of actual improvement in the Veteran's ability to function under ordinary conditions, and the Veteran reported very frequent, completely prostrating attacks that were productive of severe economic inadaptability.
