HI.
The alternating constipation and diarrhea needs further evaluation in the form of colonoscopy, CT scan of the abdomen, routine and relevant blood, urine and stool tests.
The Chronic abdominal pain always have a reason to be found out. Only if all the tests are negative for specific diseases like Gastrointestinal Cancer, Tuberculosis , Crohns and so, then only you can be labelled as having Irritable Bowel Syndrome, IBS.
You certainly need a medical treatment for this, and to treat the stress, which is the most important reason of IBS.
