Alright first of all anybody who has gone through the process and might be of any help thanks in advance. Now, I have IBS and it is documented that I have gone through a variety of tests: Upper GI, etc. I contacted the person at CBR through email today and she said that it would have to be documented that I for sure have IBS and that I have tried to use alternate medication for it. Now the only way to conclude IBS is to go through all the tests and have nothing come up, and obviously I would know because my eating drastically effects my stomach, and nothing such as chrons or anything else came up throughout my testing. So I am waiting to look at my medical records myself and see what it says exactly but I would imagine it would conclude IBS. Or it should have anyways. So the problem is there isn't really medication for IBS other than antidepressants and natural medicines. And I refuse to take antidepressants. So my question is if I have gone through these tests and nothing was shown, will it be documented I have IBS? and if not how do I make it documented without sounding fishy to my doctor. Also since you are supposed to have "Tried alternate medicine" and all there is is antidepressants which I refuse to take, other than natural medicines which I have used, does this still apply when it is something like this? Thanks to anyone who can help really looking for some
