Partly granted
The Board granted restoration of a 70 percent rating for PTSD and a TDIU, while denying an increased rating in excess of 70 percent.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show improvement in the Veteran's ability to function under ordinary conditions of life and work, thus the reduction was void ab initio. The Veteran's symptoms have not approximated total social and occupational impairment at any point during the appeal period.
