Migraine VA Ratings Explained: What Actually Gets You 30% or 50%

The VA isn’t rating migraines based on how painful they are. It looks at whether your attacks are prostrating, how often they happen, how long they last, and whether they actually interfere with your ability to function.

In this episode, I break down what separates a 0%, 10%, 30%, and 50% migraine VA rating, what “prostrating” means, and the evidence that can help prove the severity of your migraines.

I also cover migraine logs, personal statements, medical evidence, and common mistakes veterans make when explaining their attacks.
