After smoking about 10 years. Honestly I can't say I noticed much of a difference in my IBS! (I know people will be mad I said that...)
Well actually - the 2 weeks after I quit were the worst, constant D and pain....but after the withdrawel was semi-over (it'll never be completely over), my stomach was back to the same.

If smoking is something you do just to rebel then I'd rethink it for just a second. There are plenty of other things that you can do to make yourself feel like a rebel that won't cause cancer or other illnesses.
I smoked for 10 years and just quit in January (4 months!! Yay me!!)....I understand how hard it is to stop but you really should try! It's not as hard as you think it is. I went from 1 pack/day to nothing without any help....just cold turkey....so I know you can do it!!
I haven't noticed any difference with my IBS since quitting though....but I have noticed that I smell things more...things taste WAY BETTER and my lung capacity has improved soooo much.

The rest of the story is...I smoked for 7 years, quit for 2 and recently, about 2 months ago started up again. From the responses I got it doesnt seem to be a trigger for IBS, but I know it sure doesn't help it.

I do. Now that I don't combine it with coffee it doesn't make me poo so much any more! heh.
I tried giving up the summer I was a total raging b*tch the whole time. 
I do kinda like it still, but I'm also ashamed of it, and I know I'll need to do something about it before I'm 30.
