I know that is a whole lot of info but hope it helps.

This is on

FUNCTIONAL BOWEL DISORDERS

Contributed by the International Foundation for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (IFFGD) and edited by the Patient Care Committee of the ACG.

INTRODUCTION

Doctors use the word "functional" to describe symptoms or problems when they can find no anatomical abnormalities. The problem has to do with function of the affected organs, where things don't work or feel quite right. Symptoms of functional bowel disorders can occur anywhere in the gastrointestinal system. This chapter will focus on symptoms that occur in the mid or lower abdominal area. These disorders include functional diarrhea, functional constipation, functional abdominal bloating, functional abdominal pain syndrome and irritable bowel syndrome, which will be discussed in a separate chapter.
