How was it for you? I have never been diagnosed with anything, only IBS. Last time I went for a colonoscopy the Dr actually refused to do it as my symptoms had cleared up. During an IBS flare I did have a stool sample check for inflammation but that came back completely fine, so the Drs were happy to rule out IBD. I've also had coeliac disease ruled out.
I only wonder about Diviticulitis because sometimes I think my IBS might be a little too much? Like right now I'm in a flare up where my stools are either loose or just water (been going on for like 2 weeks). I've never had blood in my stool or had pain that wasn't fixed by passing gas/bowel movement. I wouldn't say my pain is stuck to the left side either, when I get an IBS attack it just burns all across my bottom abdomen.
Anyone else here been diagnosed with IBS but turned out to be Diviticulitis? What were your symptoms?
Thanks.
