Denied
The Board denied service connection for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) as it was not shown to be causally or etiologically related to any disease, injury, or incident in service.
The deciding factor: The evidence is persuasively against the claim due to the lack of a diagnosis prior to the filing and the Veteran's statements being unenhanced by medical comment.
