PER CURIAM:
There was substantial evidence from which the Secretary could conclude that Havens’ epileptic seizures could be controlled by medication and abstinence from alcohol. There is no merit in the appellant’s contention that his chronic alcoholism or the symptoms resulting from his excessive use of alcohol compelled a different result in the evaluation of his claim of disability.
