I have the same problem and, in fact, I just went to the Dr. today and was put on a 10 day course of Flagyl for bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). I understand from an article on IBS from MedicineNet.com that bacterial overgrowth is a common problem for IBS sufferers. Have you had a blood test or a hydrogen breath test to rule out that possibility? I have asked him to consider whether he could prescribe Flora-Q or another probiotic when I go back after this course of meds.
