I had meningicocal meningitis in the Army in 1969 at Ft Dix I was diagnosed with migraines back then. I have suffered from them since then. Depending on the episodes I am either in agony or can take Tylenol and lay down for an hour. I am 70 years old and wonder if I should seek a disability from the VA or SS?
