Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an initial compensable evaluation for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) as the evidence did not support a higher, compensable rating under the applicable criteria.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's IBS symptoms were found to be moderate at best and did not meet the criteria for a compensable evaluation.
