MRI or endoscopy for bloating IBS
Hi, I have all symptoms of IBS. Before 30 days smelly gas, flatulence started with single episode of diorrhea.. after that I have trouble passing stools.. always after eating my abdomen bloating and becomes too big.
Doctor had given Sompraz L I took for 15 days. He suggested endoscopy but I didn't go for it yet..
Alongwith above symptoms of digestion and stools, I also have adenomyosis symptoms for which doctor has ordered pelvic MRI.
My question is since I am going for pelvic MRI , can I also add abdomen MRI so that I get detailed picture if I have gastritis related or any lever problem or crohn's?
Or should I just go ahead with pelvic MRI and go for endoscopy for abdominal or IBs problems? Which test is better for digestive issues?

No need to do MRI for evaluation of gastritis and crohn's . With endoscopy and CECT both of them can be evaluated properly . But get MRi done for adenomyosis and prepare yourself for hysterectomy if diagnosis is confirmed .
