Hi, I believe I am suffering from IBS for several years. No blood in stools,.no weight loss so don't think it's IBD. Would being tested for intolerance or sensitivity to certain foods help alleviate my symptoms. Thank you

Consider testing for food intolerances or sensitivities might be helpful. While IBS doesn't cause structural damage like Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), it can still lead to uncomfortable gastrointestinal symptoms.
