I Have An Hernia On The Lower Left Side Of

I have an hernia on the lower left side of my abdomen and it is distended. I, also, believe I have IBS with chronic pain. I saw a segment on television this past Monday morning telling about two new blood tests. It is called a Shenk, test. Do you know about them? I sent a message to my doctor this afternoon. I should receive an answer in the next few days. Thank you for your attention.
