Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating for compensation based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities, finding that the evidence did not support a finding that his service-connected conditions rendered him unable to secure or follow substantially gainful employment.
The deciding factor: The Board found significant discrepancies in the Veteran's reported symptoms and medical history, which it deemed not credible. The record showed no clear evidence of chronic headaches or IBS since service, despite the Veteran's assertions.
