Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for a rating greater than 70 percent for residuals of a TBI and a rating greater than 50 percent for post-traumatic headaches, as well as remanded the issue of entitlement to special monthly compensation based on the housebound criteria being met.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the veteran's TBI or post-traumatic headaches warranted a higher rating due to their severity and frequency, and there was no significant impact on his ability to work.
