IBS: Irritable bowel syndrome is a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning that a variety of medical conditions will have to be ruled out. Duration of your symptoms is lower than required duration for IBS. Best in order to further investigate would be to see your doc who can further coordinate workup and consult a gastroenterologist as needed.
