In part

"FINDING OF FACT

The veteran's IBS is manifested by moderate to severe

constipation, bloating, gas, and moderate to severe abdominal

pains, with past problems of diarrhea; these symptoms

reasonably reflect a disability picture consistent with

severe irritable colon syndrome.

CONCLUSION OF LAW

A 30 percent rating is warranted for the veteran's IBS.

38 U.S.C.A. §§ 1155, 5107 (West 2002); 38 C.F.R. §§ 3.102,

4.1, 4.3, 4.7, 4.21, 4.114, Diagnostic Code (Code) 7319

(2007)."

They are using the irritable colon syndrome as part of the IBS disability.
