Going to the gastro.....

Hey everyone
My gorgeous husband made me an appointment with the gastro today..the earliest they can see me is the 11th of august so I have about 2 weeks to do loads of info and go in there strong and knowledgable. I know a lot about the dietary aspects of ibs, but have not ever really had tests done.
When I was first diagnosed at 15 (10 years ago) the only thing the gastro in london did was try me on peppermint caps and antispasmodics before saying that I had to see a psychiatrist. So needless to say he was useless (I'm not dissing psychaitrists...I went..it did nothing...).
So I feel kind of anti conventional medicine, because natural medicine is the only thing that has helped me...but the thing is, I have never even had a scan!!!
So I am up for lots of tests.
Here is when I need all of you please.
Please could you all tell me what you know about tests, which ones I should be having, what to expect etc...help me go in there armed!!
I would really appreciate any help
Thank you XXXXX
