If the "autoimmune theory" of IBS is correct, then SIBO is part of IBS.

Either way, most people with SIBO/dysbiosis also struggle with IBS before, during & after SIBO treatment. If you have SIBO with some heartburn, you have IBS.

SIBO is kinda like a byproduct of many people's IBS. Also the main IBS symptoms driver in many people's cases.

Definitely familiarize with Pimentel's work. He's gonna have life changing breakthroughs for many of us.
Here's his book "A New IBS Solution" all about SIBO. He talks about how 70-80% of his patients with IBS had SIBO. This doesn't mean they don't have IBS and only have SIBO. Because with SIBO you can clear it out (with diet, drugs, supplements) but if you don't address the underlying motility issues with your IBS, you're definitely gonna get SIBO again.

Have you ever gotten tested? Methane dominant SIBO causes ridiculous constipation.

IBS is a diagnosis of exclusion, so not really a diagnosis at all since it doesn't say what you have as much as it says what is happening. IBS has historically and still is often seen by well-meaning physicians as 80% psychological. What were starting to understand is that there's a much higher chance that the anxiety and depression that are associated with IBS are probably caused by the same disorder that causes IBS and this changes gut Flora. IANAD buttttttt Drs are horrible at doing the differential Dx for this.

Look at Mark Pimentel's book

Also. I'm serious. I've had IBS for 14 years. The food diary along with a structured food elimination diet may change things. Oh and a fecal transplant. Sounds gross because it is, but it's the #1 cure for C-diff according to best practices. It's just never done because it makes people go eww.
