This might be a really weird question but I was wondering....

if you don't have IBS...will antispasmodics still work??

Here's my situation:

I have been diagnosed with IBS for a few years now (although I believe I've had it since I was a child) and I've had all the tests done to rule out everything EXCEPT a colonoscopy...I'm still waiting for my appointment.

In the the meantime I was prescribed an antispasmodic called Modulon....and it seems to be working amazing!! I have not felt this good for years!!

So if the antispasmodic is taking away my stomach pain and the acacia is helping me have regular BM's then that must mean I do in fact have IBS right??

Cuz if it was something else the meds wouldn't help it right??

I was just curious about this...any input is much appreciated!!

Hope everyone's having a great tummy day!!
