I have endo, IBS-D, fibromyalgia, RLS, migraines, chronic kidney pain, a tilted uterus, scoliosis, degenerative discs, mast cell disease, mastocytosis, gastritis, and premature arthritis. (WHEW!   ) I may also have Lyme disease, considering I've been exposed to the same factors my BF and dog have, and they both have it. )
But all of these ailments have different side effects, and the endo and IBS are easy to tell apart. A big way to know is that I have stomach pain even when I don't have my period, while the endo is localized to the week my period happens.
But I fixed the endo by stopping my periods with depo provera-- my last endo attack was my last period, August '99.  Yeaaaaa!!
Do you have D or C? IBS is a digestive disorder so you should know how to make your stomach go out either by eating the wrong food or by putting too much pressure on your stomach. You won't be able to do the same with endo.
Good luck!
