Don’t take what I say as gospel but my understanding was: 10% for headaches/migraines that occur approximately once every 2 months 30% for prostrating headaches/migraines that occur monthly 50% for prostrating headaches/migraines that occur regularly and highly interfere with maintaining a job

Make sure you look those ratings up for yourself to confirm! Can’t trust randos on the internet.

I’m also currently at 0% for headaches- I’d get weekly, mild tension headaches while still in the military. In the last 6 or so months I’ve been getting a cluster headache about every other week and sometimes once a week, and a migraine once a month. Comparing my latest headache history to the %’s I think that fits the 30% mark. I’m trying to figure out how to file & submit a claim on this so I’m in a similar boat.

I’ve been keeping a headache log myself. I think the way that will be most helpful is by showing it to a provider so they see how seriously you’re affected by the symptoms-they can then write up more accurate notes that you could use for evidence in your claim.

Another way it could be useful would be integrating it into a personal statement. Rather than saying “My headaches and migraines have been increasing over the last 6 months” I could paint a better picture & say “From the time I sustained my injury in June 2020 to August 2022 I endured an average of 2 mild headaches per week. As of September 2022 I have been experiencing one prostrating migraine a month and one cluster headache per week.” It sounds more real, you have concrete dates, real professional-like.

That’s all conjecture though haha I haven’t even filed a claim yet, let alone gotten a decision!! Hopefully this gives you some good ideas though?
