I only have 1 bad day or so a month - not even a full-blown flare up, just kind of not feeling so hot. (Usually it's hormonal and therefore unavoidable.) I might have D on those days, but it passes quickly and I go on with my day. I never take Imodium or anything like that anymore.
I never worry about finding a bathroom, going places, being in public, or any of the other stuff I used to worry about when I was at my sickest.
I never feel like I'm "working through it". I know I'll have IBS for the rest of my life, but I've just kind of accepted it as part of who I am. If I'm having a bad day, I do what I have to do to take care of myself. Most of the time, though, I just live my life and don't give IBS a second thought.
