Granted
The Veteran's service-connected diabetes and upper and lower peripheral neuropathy rendered him unable to work in any job, sedentary or non-sedentary, making a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) appropriate.
The deciding factor: Resolving reasonable doubt in the Veteran's favor, the evidence of record suggests that he was incapable of maintaining substantially gainful employment due to his service-connected conditions.
