Based on these symptoms, do i have ibs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Always possible, but: IBS is a diagnosis of exclusion and a variety of conditions have to be ruled out in order to formulate the diagnosis. Specific duration and timing criteria are used in the process. Would suggest seeking medical help from your primary care who may decide based on specifics and exam regarding further work up and a possible gastroenterology referral.
