Anxiety can definitely affect the stomach and bowel. My nerves can give me bad indigestion. I don't know it causes IBS though.
Endoscopy is generally safe. There are a few small risks such as perforation.
I know some of the panic you are going through because I'm having a colonoscopy in December. The bowel prep terrifies me.

I just don't think the tests are necessary because I think it was from the opiate use in very little hydration I am no longer constipated so I am still slightly bloated not severely as it was before, dietary changes have helped me greatly I may just continue to make lifestyle changes and see if I get any better I think a lot of it has to do with me panicking over what the doctor said as well, I just don't understand for the life of me how someone could recommend a colonoscopy and endoscopy forgot it was complaining of constipation and bloating after doing no tests at all that makes zero sense to me
