Hi - Your doc really could not have properly diagnosed you like that. At a minimum, you need some bloodwork, and depending on some other factors you may need scope work as well. And, your symptoms have to fit the Rome II diagnostic criteria for IBS.

For diagnosis details and tests, check here web page

For Rome II criteria, check here web page

Best,
