Standard Irritable Bowel Syndrome Care App

This App is configured for patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) or those that may have IBS.
Background
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a group of symptoms—including pain or discomfort in your
abdomen and changes in your
bowel movement patterns—that occur together. Doctors call IBS a
functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorder. Functional GI disorders happen when your GI tract behaves in an abnormal way without evidence of damage due to a disease.
