1) You feel this is to blame?

Quite possible. However, you said you have been taking an antibiotic which may also be contributing significantly to the problem too.

2) How long should it take before my body re-adjusts?

Likely a week or two

3) I am REALLY surprised being off these for 1-10 days can make the body have to re-adapt.

Yep!

4) Avoid FOS from now on?

Yes

-Which adiphillus would you recommend?
-Jarrow/Align?

Align is not does not contain the probiotic acidophilus. It contains the probiotic Bifidobacterium infantis. Only a couple of small clinical trial have been done using acidophilus for IBS. The results have been mixed. A couple of large clinical trials have been done on Align with quite favorable results. Align is likely the better choice.
