I had that done. They still don’t know what causes it I kept a food diary and they still don’t know what causes it. And they only show commercial for IBS-C. They have no medicine for IBS-D. I take Cholestyramine and I always have gas.

I take the same medication and always have gas too. I don’t know why they don’t make medicine for IBS-D

I think the colonoscopy is to help diagnose bowel problems such as constipation and diarrhea! This procedure will help our doctor figure out your problems
