Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a rating in excess of 20 percent for diabetes mellitus type II, as there was no evidence that his condition required one or more daily injections of insulin, restricted diet, and regulation of activities.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's diabetes did not require prescribed regulation of activities as defined by VA, which is necessary to warrant a higher rating.
