Here is a sampling of IBS articles:
Can IBS ever lead to colon cancer or even colon polyps?

IBS and back pain!
Yes, IBS can cause back pain. But how does this happen? And is there anything you can do to prevent this?

IBS Symptoms vs. Microscopic Colitis
It’s no secret that often, someone with IBS is misdiagnosed with microscopic colitis, and someone with microscopic colitis is misdiagnosed with IBS.
The symptoms greatly overlap, but this doesn’t mean that the treatments are similar as well.
Fact is, the treatments and management of both these conditions are quite different from each other.
That’s why when there’s a misdiagnosis, the patient continues suffering from the problem with no improvements, despite the new “treatment.”
A misdiagnosis should not occur, being that the diagnosis of microscopic colitis is dependent upon a tissue biopsy that has a distinct appearance under the microscope!
