Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and remanded the claims for voiding dysfunction, right renal cyst, and further evidence.
The deciding factor: The August 2025 private medical opinion provided significant probative weight in establishing a link between the Veteran's current IBS disability and his active service at Camp Lejeune.
