Hi Maddie. Sorry you're feeling bad. Fibercon should help, not cause, a D attack. Are you taking it regularly as an SFS? If not, you should work up to a regular daily dosage of 12-15g (of SF, not of the fibercon, not sure how much SF fibercon provides/dose so you'd have to check that). However it is possible that you're having a bad reaction to it - though those reactions usually are more like bloating and gas, not D. How much did you take? And how long have you been take it for?
4 immodium is A LOT - that much would make me C. However if it's *not* stopping your D then it's *probably* not to blame (though it may have messed you up a little).
I think you probably hit the nail on the head when you mentioned that you're having your period. A LOT of women with IBS find that hormonal fluctuations around that time of the month worsens their IBS - that is certainly the WORST time of the month for me every month, and there's almost nothing I can do to stop the D sometimes in the morning  Usually in the few days before I get my period and the first few days of my period I make sure to eat very very safe, and to take immodium when needed, and it usually lessens the pain a little.
Hope that helps, and that you feel better soon.
