Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for an initial evaluation in excess of 30 percent for irritable bowel syndrome, finding that a maximum schedular rating had already been assigned.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show any additional symptoms of IBS that were not adequately addressed by the current rating criteria.
