Avoid foods that cause a flare. For me it is lactose. I also have a sensitivity to gluten. I am not full blown coeliac, but certain types of gluten causes me pain so I tend to avoid gluten and follow a gluten free diet and the Low Fodmap diet. Helps heaps.

It is an every day problem. Stay home a lot . I am gluten intolerant . My Dr put me on mild laxative. This help sometimes.

To keep a happy medium I take half of an immodium in the morning and a fiber pill in the afternoon...but some days are still one way or the other

Do an allergy screen and then eliminate foods that trigger your ibs.

I dont.
