I can relate to your story. I used to be IBS-C (I did not know it at the time), then I became IBS-A and now I am IBS-D. After being diagnosed as IBS-D, I able to manage my condition only with Heather's diet for a year and a half. Last fall, I started to have D-attack two times a week out of the blue and even the BTC diet did not help. I started to take one half of Imodium in the morning everyday and was fine for two months, then it hit me again this week. You could try this for a couple of weeks, it will work.
Remember that stress or fatigue is a major trigger, so the more you will panic or frustrate over it, the worse it will get. Believe me, I can relate (see my post) with your frustration. But IBS is a mysterious thing and there is no miracle cure (even Heather's diet can't prevent things from happening in your life that will stress you out.) So...
1)Stick the BTC for couple of days 2) Take one half a dose of Imodium each morning before breakfast (for a while) 3) Stay calm and relax.
