IBS: Is a difficult to make diagnosis and a chronic disease in the sense that there is no known cure. Lifestyle modifications with relaxation techniques and diet scrutiny and modifications are first steps. Best managed by a team including your PCP, gastroenterologist and psychologist. Treatment is individualized and dictated by poorly tolerated symptoms.
