The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) as his service-connected conditions do not demonstrate any limitations that would prevent him from engaging in substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not show that the Veteran's service-connected disabilities alone render him unable to engage in substantially gainful employment, given the lack of functional impairment noted by examiners and the presence of non-service-connected conditions causing more significant impact on his employability.
