Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a disability rating in excess of 70 percent for PTSD, as the severity, frequency, and duration of his symptoms did not more closely approximate total occupational and social impairment.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran's symptoms caused the level of impairment required for a higher disability rating.
