Hi - It might help for your family to know that there is something wrong in people who have IBS, they just don't have a standard diagnostic test to show this. But, there are actually tests that show the physical difference between IBS and non-IBS folks. One of them is a brain scan that shows how IBS affects the nervous system of the gut, and the gut's communication with the brain, following a meal. There's a great picture of this here web page

Just scroll down the page till you see the bright blue graphs - you can print them out to show your family ("see!! there is something wrong with me!").
