Granted
The Veteran is granted a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities, including PTSD, prostate cancer, diabetes mellitus type 2, and erectile dysfunction, effective May 24, 2021.
The deciding factor: The evidence shows that the Veteran's service-connected conditions collectively prevented him from securing or following a substantially gainful occupation prior to May 24, 2021, and his acquired psychiatric disorder alone would have precluded substantially gainful employment beginning on that date.
