It might depend on what particular bacteria they tested for, and which one(s) can cause IBS. This new research may find bacteria that hadn't been implicated previously in IBS.

I am taking 18 months of antibiotics for my rheumatoid arthritis -- I'm about a year into it, and doing fantastic. I'm tempted to stop it now, but the doc says it's worth it to finish up. I am SOOOO glad I searched for answers and didn't believe that there was no knkown cause, and therefore no cure. But, it'll be just my luck that when I finish the 18 months of it, they'll find out what bacteria causes IBS, and I'll be positive for that, and have to start a NEW round of antibiotics to kill that one! (I'm really tired of antibiotics every day!)
