Partly granted
The Veteran's PTSD was granted a maximum disability rating of 100 percent effective December 12, 2022. The ratings for migraines and IBS with GERD were restored from noncompensable to their previous levels.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's PTSD symptoms warranted a 100 percent rating due to severe impairment in thought processes and disorientation, while the reductions of her migraine and IBS with GERD ratings were improper as they did not follow proper procedural guidelines.
