Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!)

If you've been having attacks lately, which it sounds like you have, I would really suggest sticking to the "what to eat when you can't eat anything" diet guidelines (I can find those for you and link them, if you're not familiar with them). It makes for somewhat boring breakfast choices, but you'll be able to expand them soon, promise. Some things that have worked for me are:

Hot rice cereal (it's baby food, but surprisingly tasty) with a bit of sugar
Toasted bagels, english muffins, bread - be careful what you put on them! a thin scrape of jam should be fine
Hot rice with a drop of vanilla and a bit of sugar

If you're a cereal eater, try Honeycomb or plain rice cereals such as Chex (I'm not sure what you can get in your area, but a cold cereal made of rice flour will be safe). Skip the milk altogether - dairy is a trigger - or use rice or soy milk instead (I find rice milk is safer). Wheetabix, by the way, is definitely too high in insoluble fiber if you're just starting to get stable.

Once you're a little more stable attack-wise, you can start adding in some of the IBS-safe muffin and bread recipes from the cookbook or the recipe board - tasty and good for you too!

Hope that helps a little - and welcome, by the way!
