There is no cure.  You may also want to check this site out.  It is a self-help support group for IBS sufferers.  There is a lot of information on the site and people are really nice.  You also have access to penpals that also suffer from IBS.  You can check out all the forums.  The one you would have more interest in is IBS-D (for diarrhea).

My Bride has IBS.  \n\nThere is no cure, but it can be controlled with a healthy diet.  It sounds like you are making a good go at that.\n\nOne thing that we have done is completely cut Casien (Dairy Protien) out of her diet, and that has done wonders.\n\nDairy Alergies are often an underlying cause of IBS...  Please not that this is not Lactose intolerence.\n\nI would recomend skipping the dairy  --  Cheese, Butter, Margerine, Anything with Whey or Dried Milk, Anything with Casien or Caseinate \n\n(Sodium Caseinate). http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-IYIp5vk7dKilI9wI1w_jA7SeWdQ-?cq=1&p=1319\n\nI would bet that it's the Casein provoking your troubles.\n\nI have a number of Dairy-Free recipes on-line to help you eat happy without Milk if you would like.\nhttp://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-IYIp5vk7dKilI9wI1w_jA7SeWdQ-?cq=1&p=1\nNot all of my recipes are dairy-Free, so careful which ones you fall in love with...\n\n\nOne last thing...  Oil of Peppermint is a natural source of relief if you're in horrible pain, and looking for something that's not just going to make things worse...

Pepto-Bismal, Imodium, Kaopectate II, Maalox Anti-Diarrheal, and Pepe Diarrhea Control are some over the counter medications.  Things that will also help:\n\nCLEAR LIQUIDS \nA diet of clear liquids should begin immediately upon the onset of symptoms. Diluted fruit juices, sports drinks, broth and teas will help to keep dehydration at bay and provide the body with much needed electrolytes. \n\nHEAT \nApply heat to the abdomen to help relieve pain, cramps, and tenderness. Electric heating pads, moist heat wraps, and water bottles can all be used as needed. \n\nPAIN RELIEVERS \nNon-prescription pain relievers can help to ease pain.

Gut Problems...Relief\n\nThe food and water you eat and drink the food water you don't eat and drink could relieve your IBS and more.\n\nTo begin with, IBS or Irritable is not a disease but rather a denfense system. It is a gut indicator that your body is toxic. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results without changing behaviors. Many people want good health but they want a magic pill to fix them so they can continue with their life just as it was before their health failed.\n\nGut problems and most diseases are indicators that you are out of alkaline/acid balance. Imagine your body as car battery. If you give your car battery a proper acid and water balance then it will give your body the boost it needs to wake up in the morning and keep giving you a proper amount of current to keep all of its electrical systems. You don't even think about your car battery unless something starts going wrong with your electrical systems. If you have gut problems, your body like a battery may start but it will start showing signs that it is in decline. IBS and 95% of all health issues are indicators that should be telling you that your battery low on water or has an improper amount of acid. It is easy to add distilled water to your human body but just like a car, many of us ignore the signal until we have a dead cell. Unlike a car though, you can't throw out your body and start over. Our bodies are an amazing battery though and if you give it the proper acid and water it needs,\nyou can relieve your IBS, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia or Leaky Gut, Hormonal Imbalance, Diabetes, Parasites, HIV, Gout, Allergies, Psoriasis, Cancer and every other disease.\n\nThere may be a cure for IBS in the sense that you may some day be capable of eating toxic foods and drinking toxic water again but if you have gut problems then be aware that it is like the red light going off on the the dash of your car. Many people want to run to a doctor to get their body to stop sending that signal.Doctors are good at masking symptoms without addressing the cause of the problem. If you take drugs to mask the signals your body is giving you then you may get temporary relief that prevents your body you sending you a danger signal but consistently ignoring our body may lead to chronic illness. Make some dietary and lifestyle changes and you may overcome disease and any gut problems or health condition you might have.\n\nMany other people around you may eat the same food you eat and drink the same water you drink and they may appear healthy but for you that same food and water may cause your body to give you a warning signal that you are poisoning yourself. IBS could be a big red flag that you need to eat or drink something different than what other people eat and drink. Imagine there are 5 kinds of people in the world and for 4 of those kinds people, what you eat might be considered food to their body but for you of the fifth kind of people, what you eat could be considered a toxic chemical. Eat and drink what is right for you and your body.\n\nAn elimination diet could help to isolate what is causing your body to warn you that it is being poisoned. Start in the morning and quit one thing that you normally eat or drink for breakfast. If it is coffee, milk, tap water, or even a piece of toast, pick one thing to quit putting in your gut. Give it a week and if you feel some relief, you should consider eliminating this food and substituting a more healthy alternative. Move on to lunch then dinner and identify then eliminate what your body is telling you is toxic. Discover what is causing your body to send up a danger signal and you may no longer have IBS related gastro-intesinal disturbances.\n\nMilk and other dairy products- are the end product of a cow that has had toxins pumped into it from birth and for all of its life. Vaccines and hormones are pumped into milk cows to fatten her up and to increase her milk production. Vaccin

Have you seen a specialist about this problem?  I would make an appointment with one if I was you.  I guess it would be like a gastrointestinal doctor.  You could have something like Irritable Bowel Syndrome with diarrhea.  There are medications for something like that.  I am not a doctor, but I would definitely continue to go to them until one can help you.  Good luck!

forget home remedies and pepto bismol.\n\ndiarrhea cannot be tolerated.  You need to drink lots of water and take some Imodium ad tablets.  That will clear you up fast.\n\nTake two at first then one tablet every time you experience it again not to exceed two every two hours I think it reads on the package.\n\nNever be without that stuff ever!!!

I am not sure where abouts you are from so this may not be relevant but...............\n\nDuring the summer times my children always used to get diarrhea. I found the best thing to do was to allow it to work it's way out of their system but just ensured they had plenty of fresh water to drink. It won't do them any harm whatsoever to go without food for a day, but they have to have plenty of fluids.\nThat is the best remedy for diarrhea and no medication involved.\nIf she is having tummy gripes too, just rub her tummy gently or hold the palm of your hand against her tummy. The warmth of your hand acts like a cool water bottle and can be very soothing.\n\nHope she feels better soon

Change your diet and possibly see a gastroenterologist. I had showed IBS symptoms for awhile and saw a doctor and changed my diet and haven't really had any problems since. I believe going to the doctor and taking a barrium swallow will also assist them if needed.

In the Hospital, We use the B.R.A.T. diet.\n\nB.R.A.T. is an acronym, which stands for:\nBananas,Rice,Applesauce and Toast.\nThese foods work well for controlling diarrhea because they are low in fiber and digestive residue.\n\n\n\n\nI would suggest you go to a Board Certified Gastroenterologist to determine the cause.

Medical studies (I believe in the 1950's) showed that very high doses of vitamin C (requires an intravenous infusion) were very effective in clearing shingles and post-herpetic pain.  You will need to find a knowledgeable Naturopathic Physician or Medical Doctor to get this type of treatment.\n\nYou can try very high doses (1000 - 2000 milligrams) of oral vitamin C, taken every hour throughout the day.  These high doses can cause diarrhea in some.  Also, even these high doses may not be able to raise serum levels of Vitamin C high enough to be effective.\n\nAlso consider seeing your Chiropractor.  Spinal manipulation of the involved vertebrae has, in my clinical experienced, helped some recover faster from herpetic pain.\n\nBest wishes and good luck.

I too have IBS, and two healthy sons.  I would only suggest you let your body heal fully from the fevers and such before you consider pregnancy.  Wait a year from the wedding at least before you go for parenthood.

I was only 19 when I was diagnosed with I.B.S., so I've had it for 10 years now\n\nTalk to your doctor, who will probably refer to to a gastroenterologist.  There are SEVERAL different forms of IBS, and treatments are different for men and women.    If you appointment with your doctor is not immediate, keep a journal of how often you find yourself in the bathroom.  This can be helpful.\n\nAlso, find a support group.

Treatment is ideally directed toward correcting the cause; however, the first aim is to prevent or treat dehydration and nutritional deficiencies. When possible, food intake should be continued even in patients with acute diarrhea. A physician should be consulted as to what type and how much food is permitted. Low-fat diets or more easily digestible fat is useful in some patients. The BRAT diet, which limits food intake to bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast, can help to resolve diarrhea. These foods provide soluble and insoluble fiber without irritation. If the toast is slightly burnt, the charcoal can help sequester toxins and pull them from the body. The patient should drink plenty of fluids, however, in severe cases hospitalization to provide intravenous fluids may be necessary. A physician should be notified if the patient is dehydrated, and if oral replacement is suggested then commercial (Pedialyte and others) or homemade preparations can be used. The World Health Organization(WHO) has provided this easy recipe for home preparation, which can be taken in frequent small sips:\n• table salt: 3/4 teaspoon\n• baking powder: 1 teaspoon\n• orange juice: 1 cup\n• water: 1 quart or liter\nSupplements\nNutrient replacement also plays a role in preventing and treating diarrhea. Zinc especially appears to have an effect on the immune system, and deficiency of this mineral can lead to chronic diarrhea. Also, zinc replacement improves growth in young patients.\nDietary supplements that are generally beneficial in the treatment of digestive disorders include:\n• vitamin C: 50-500 mg daily\n• vitamin B6: 50-150 mg daily\n• magnesium aspartate: 400 mg daily\n• vitamin E: 400 IU daily\n• glutamine: 3,000 mg daily\n• garlic, deodorized: 2,000 mg daily\n• deghycirrhizinated licorice: chew as needed
