Functional gastrointestinal disorders, or disorder of gut-brain interaction, can be frightening to many GIs. How do I talk to the patient? What can I tell them if there is no improvement in their symptoms? How can I even explain to them what their diagnosis is, if I don’t even know it? To clear things up and provide clear points of action, our host Egle Dieninyte talked to Tim Vanuytsel from the University Hospital in Leuven, Belgium.
