I have symptoms of ibs how do i find out for sure?

IBS: Should only be a diagnosis of exclusion. That is to say it should be diagnosed after all other more serious causes of your symptoms are ruled out and that may entail a complete upper endoscopy and colonoscopy and other appropriate testing based on your symptoms.
