Hi all, I haven't been diagnosed with ibs yet but for three days I have had very watery stool and excess gas. I phoned my doctor and she told me to leave it another 10days and then she would test for IBS. What symptoms do I look out for to know for definate?

Right now it sounds like it could be infection as watery stool and excess gas go hand in hand. So treat it like that and stick to a bland diet for now. If you have a history of this then you need to go and have a bunch of tests to rule out so many other things before you can start thinking about a diagnosis.
Thank you for your advice I will try that... Just don't know what else to do
Have you read Dr. Micheal Mosley books : There were a few BBC programmes on TV few weeks ago on where he covered various topics including IBS.
Forgive my ignorance, but I was not aware that there was a 'test' for IBS??
My doctor told me she could test via blood tests and stool samples
Not what you're looking for?
