Do any of you know the symptoms of IBS? Irritable Bowel Syndrome? I think I may have it as I am either constipated or have diarhea. I know kind of a gross question but one I have any way. I see my doc tomorrow and plan on bringing it up but thought I'd ask you wise people.

I mentioned this to my doc this morning and he seemed reluctant to diagnose me so I have an appointment on the 17th with the gastro doc and maybe they'll be able to shed some light on my tummy problems.
