Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hello everyone,
First I want to say thank you to everyone who answered my last question, you've really helped me and I look forward to having an easier time with this because of your advice. Thanks!
I have another question. I've never really been diagnosed with IBS. I've been to a few doctors who have all suggested it, I have a lot of the symptoms and the things that help people with IBS to feel better help me as well. I've sort of accepted that that meant I had it but I know "technically" it doesn't. I'm going to go see a doctor in about two weeks to try to figure out exactly what is wrong with me. I've already been to others and had blood and stool tests. I admit I don't want any more tests but I know I'm going to need them.
Does anyone have any suggestions for what to talk about with my doctor, what to ask, what to point out? Any words of wisdom would be wonderful. I feel like I know what's wrong, but I would love to know for sure and get on the road to learning how to live with it.
