Partly granted
The Board granted an effective date of December 14, 2023 for the 30 percent rating for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and denied an earlier effective date for a non-compensable rating for erectile dysfunction (ED) prior to July 9, 2024.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the fact that the Veteran's IBS claim related back to his December 2023 CVA claim, while ED was not reasonably raised until August 2025.
