functional dyspepsia & IBS diet       04/19/05 07:30 AM Edit Reply Quote zebras Reged: 04/15/05 Posts: 31 Loc: Vermont I'm quite confused over my son's diagnosis. The GI said he had IBS even though he has no C or D. When I questioned him about not meeting the Rome criteria, he said there was a subset of IBS that was pain-only; according to what I have read here written by Heather, this is not true, and that it is not IBS if you don't have C or D. Our GI also said this could be called functional dyspepsia. Am I just splitting hairs here? Are these essentially the same disorder but on a different level? And if he has functional dyspepsia but not IBS, would Heather's diet still work? I'm sorry if I seem to be asking the same question over and over, but I'm still confused about how far to go with the IBS recommendations if he doesn't have true IBS. We started him on Citracel today and are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the peppermint caps. Thanks again for all the support. -Annika Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
