Granted
The Veteran's mental health disability was granted a higher rating of 70 percent, and TDIU was granted, both effective from February 28, 2014.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's symptoms worsened following his cystoprostatectomy in February 2014, warranting a higher rating for his mental health disability.
