The invention relates to methods for determining whether treatment with an H1- receptor antagonist is likely to cure a visceral sensitivity disorder in a irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patient or a functional dyspepsia patient comprising determining whether a body sample of said patient has increased levels of a histamine metabolite relative to levels in a normal tissue sample of a healthy individual, wherein an increase of a histamine metabolite is indicative for the effectivity of a treatment to be performed with said H1-receptor antagonist of said visceral sensitivity disorder.
