Ermthere aren't any treatments for IBS apart from painkillers and more fibre/better diet. Sending you to a gastro specialist won't change that, I'm afraid. At least to my knowledge, and gastro isn't my field to be fair, but I thought that was pretty well known medically. Antispasmodics sometimes work, but since the best of those is peppermint you don't really need a doctor for that.
you have my sympathy though, it's horribly painful thing.

YepBut the gastro specialist will check that it hasn't developed into cancer, as it's quite common, and that all that extra pain is not just gas on my bowels.
