If it is not ibs, what are other comparable health issues with similar symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several possible...: Ibs symptoms overlap with a number of other fairly common conditions including: food intolerance/sensitivity (eg. Milk, soybean, peanut), small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, gallbladder problems (eg. Stones, dysfunction), inflammatory bowel disease (crohn's, colitis), and celiac disease. Good luck!
