I recently had a colonoscopy performed by Dr. Walden. I visited him to address chronic constipation and abdominal pain. My colon appeared healthy, so I asked Dr. Walden if my constipation could be due to IBS. He stated that, if I had IBS, I would have diarrhea, not constipation - as if there’s no such thing as IBS-C? He also ordered blood work to test for celiacs disease, when I had informed him, both verbally and in writing, that I have not eaten gluten in almost 20 years. From what I’ve gathered, blood tests for celiac disease are not accurate unless the patient has been ingesting gluten for a while.
