So did this case result in 100% disability rating? My recent case I just submitted has nearly the same circumstances and symptoms.

The point of this post was to inform veterans that they could be awarded multiple awards under the diagnosis of fibromyalgia. This particular BVA decision did not include any ratings

Yes fibromyalgia is usually granted under the presumption for GWI under CFR 3.317, but in this case it looks like some of these medical issues were granted because they were shown to be diagnosed while in service. Therefore, these weren't awarded under the GWI presumptives.
