Thank you, I know I have IBS-C, I have had it for a long time. The new thing is the abdominal pain when I eat or drink. Do you know what tests they ordered? I would be interested to see what they looked at. I am considering Mayo Clinic or Cleveland Clinic but am hesitant since I have been to Hopkins years ago and UPenn both which were supposed to be leading edge programs. The thought of starting over again... is just overwhelming as well as the travel that would be needed. Thanks for your insights and if you are comfortable please let me know what additional tests they ordered.
