Good info for this..       03/01/03 03:36 PM Edit Reply Quote Heather Reged: 12/09/02 Posts: 7799 Loc: Seattle, WA Found a great Nat'l. Institute of Health link website It sounds like diagnostic tests can positively identify this disorder - the nerve cells in the colon are simply missing, and this is physically visible in a biopsy. The symptoms sure do sound like IBS-C in a lot of people - yet another reason to make sure someone has the proper diagnostic tests before they accept a doctor's word that they have IBS. Thanks for the good question Sharon - I wouldn't be surprised to hear some people post that they have this or know someone who does, but was initially misdiagnosed with IBS. - Heather -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
