Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an extraschedular total disability rating due to individual unemployability (TDIU) based solely on his service-connected back disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not establish that the Veteran's back disability alone precluded him from securing and following substantially gainful employment.
