English term or phrase: IBS-C
In this market research text on a medical topic, the terms "IBS" and "IBS-C" are both used. IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) can be translated as "Reizdarmsyndrom", but how is the "C" expressed? Any suggestions very much appreciated. Thanks, Ian

Actually, there will probably be confirmation that the initials \"IBS-C\" are use here from one of our doctor colleagues.
