I am IBS_C on my period and I have diarrhea, this hasn't happened before.. I've had very soft stools before. What should I do. Eat some more IF? I've been eating Luna bars, rice milk,honeycomb cereal, heather's recipe with blueberries and oatmeal annd brown sugar you put in the microwave,forgot name. Shoulld I eat some minute rice, some spinach, I have a papaya from belize...french bread,should I drink some peppermint/fennel or will that make it worse? I have to work soon...Mcdonalds is a really bad place to have to rush to the bathroom.

If you have d, definitely do not eat more IF. Have more SF like crackers, white rice. I would have the oatmeal but skip the berries. If you have to go to work, I would keep your diet bland for now...similar to the break the cycle diet to keep your system calm. You might have gotten a stomach bug or maybe the d is just from your period. You could take immodium but if it is a virus, you "want" the bad bacteria to come out so you don't want to completely stop things up. Feel better.

Originally IBS-D for a million years!

Peppermint tea does not cause D. Since you're going to work, it's probably better to take an Imodium.
