IBS-SSS (Irritable Bowel Syndrom Severity Scoring System) after exclusion (proportion).
The aim of this study is to define local immune responses in the GI tract to food antigens in
 IBS patients, with and without Brachyspira infection, using advanced imaging. We hypothesize
 that Brachyspira infection can cause IBS symptoms by inducing loss of oral tolerance to
 dietary antigens through development of food-specific intestinal immune reactions and
 subsequent development of visceral hypersensitivity.
 
 During this study, the investigators will perform either confocal laser endomiscroscopy (CLE)
 or colonoscopic antigen provocation test (COLAP) to test to which food items the participants
 react to. Furthermore, the investigators will perform rectal barostat examination and a
 sigmoidoscopy without laxatives. The investigators will collect biological samples and the
 participants will complete several questionnaires.
