How to think about CES beyond a simplistic checklist approach.
What causes CES and how that relates to the symptoms.

How bladder, bowel, saddle and sexual symptoms present… And how to tell them from red herrings.
How to navigate a succesful CES conversation (including example questions for each symptom).
