Re: What if YOU were the one of the two in 100???       12/18/09 10:49 AM Edit Reply Quote shawneric Reged: 01/30/03 Posts: 1738 Loc: Oregon In regards to the Rome 111, its ask your doctor if they are using it. The diagnoses of exclusion was changed a long time ago. But heather is right and research doctors know this and are trying to educate gastro doctors and primary care doctors a long time after they have come up with the differnt rome criteria. The next most common for the most part misdiagnoses is celiac. There is also a problem in running to many tests which cause more anxiety and more money. Most people can confidently be diagnosed with IBS and one way is to ask your doctor if they know about and use the rome criteria and that helps educate thm as well. I agree with blood tests and stool work and basic testing that can help rule out quite a few serious conditions. -------------------- My website on IBS is www.ibshealth.com Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
