From what my doctors tell me, IBS is not a disease, but a symptom of another problem (much like epilepsy, for example; many things can cause it.)
In some cases, nerves (I think that's what gets me;) or being overweight (ditto;) lactose intolerance; celiac's disease (sp?); or a # of other things. So, the problem the doctor has is first figuring out what irritates you.
