How to diagnose ibs

Asked for Male, 31 Years

Hi doctor, I am having ibs like symtoms since two months. Soft stool ( not diahera). I started treatment for IBS two month back and symtoms has improved. But i have not done any tests to confirm IBS. I have done CBC, esr, crp , ultrasound and stool analysis. How can I confirm if i have ibs or something else ?? Do i need to go for colonoscopy to get confirm or there is other way ?? Please suggest. I am scared of coloscopy due to cancer phobia.
