I don't know it's very strange because I'm definitely a D person, but since I've omitted bananas and acacia, I'm going regularly. It could be just coincidence and maybe I'm getting regular because of the probiotic. Maybe I'll try a banana again after I've been stable for a month - I'll keep you posted. For now I'm staying away from both acacia and bananas.

Well, I can only speak for myself. But a single fact remains that IBS is ONLY supposed to be the resulting diagnosis when NOTHING else is found to be abnormal. Since I've had 2 abnormal results: 1. Twice the normal amount of fat in my stool 2. Colon polyps, I do not believe my diagnosis is just IBS. So, I am trying to encourage others who may not be comfortable with their diagnosis to make sure that they have had ALL of the tests. I have a post regarding the 24 hour fecal fat test and colon polyps and not one person has responded to that which makes me wonder if anyone is even getting this test performed. If not, I believe it is very important that they do because fat malabsorption is the 2nd leading manifestation (2nd to chronic D) of SIBO. As I stated before - I do not care what the relationship is between SIBO and IBS because there is nothing to determine IBS other than negative results for everything else!
