Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings and entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of more severe symptoms or functional impairment than those already contemplated by the assigned ratings, and the Veteran was found capable of securing and following substantially gainful employment at all relevant times.
