Hot peppermint tea, several times a day really has helped me. I also recommend starting the day with a bland rice soup: Put 2 cups water in a small pan, add 1/4 cup of rice, bring to boil, lower flame and continue cooking for 45 min to 1 hr until it becomes soft and mushy, add more water if it starts to dry. This has helped me particularly on days when I went to bed with bad IBS attack. Good luck.
