Sorry to hear that you're having such a rough time I'm not really sure what to suggest...have you been officially diagnosed with IBS? Have you had all the necessary tests to make sure it isn't anything else (colonoscopy, small bowel follow-through)? If not, you may want to talk to your doctor about getting more tests...IBS generally won't wake you from sleep, so that pain may be something else.
Did you find the pain started soon after you started Nexium? Maybe you're having a bad reaction to the medication...as I recall abdominal pain can be a side-effect.
Your post didn't mention if you were male or female, but if you're female, maybe it's gynecological. That's something else to think about.
