Maybe, but...: ...IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is a diagnosis of exclusion. To accurately diagnosis & treat IBS, your doctor must exclude infection (like small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), inflammation (like Crohn's), structural pathology (like partial obstructions), dysmotilities (chronic idiopathic constipation), metabolic problems (diabetes, low thyroid), & extrinsic processes (bladder, female organs).
