Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to service-connected disabilities, as the weight of the evidence did not support that his service-connected conditions rendered him unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms, including difficulty with memory, focus, and concentration, and issues getting along with others, were considered; however, they were found insufficient to render it impossible for the average person to follow a substantially gainful occupation.
