Boy! Am I with you! I'll go a few days and think, "Hey, I'm actually going to beat this thing" and then BAM! For no obvious reason I have problems--like this morning. Seeing my bad times are 1st thing in the mornings, I had been eating saltines just before bed, the middle of the night and 1st thing in the am to keep my tummy from getting empty and I had thot I was on to something, but, after this am, guess not. That's what makes this ibs mess so frustrating. there is no rhyme or reason to it. Hope you get to feeeling better, and if it's any consolation, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! God Speed.

Actually, what's helped me a LOT on days like today was realizing that they force me to take "me" days. Instead of really whining because I'm housebound/bedridden again, I make the bed super-comfy with lots of pillows, put on some good music, fire up the laptop, grab a stack of fluffy reading, and chill out. (And then remind myself that I have some friends who would *kill* for the opportunity to do that once a week!)
It does work. I still get frustrated, but instead of STAYING that way, I get over it pretty quickly.
Thanks for the reminder!

Hey Casey,
Sorry you are down and cranky today.  I think it is great that you have been having less "D". That's really an improvement and something to celebrate.
We all have our setbacks so don't be cranky....come on...let's see a smile! 
Feel better soon
