Partly granted
The Board granted an initial disability rating of 10 percent for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) but remanded the claim for service connection for erectile dysfunction (ED).
The deciding factor: The Veteran's IBS was productive of frequent episodes of bowel disturbance with abdominal distress, warranting a 10 percent rating. The Board found that an opinion on ED is inadequate and requires further examination.
