Wow you sure are dealing with a ton of stuff.Ireally hope someone can help The only thing I could suggest is trying Slippery Elm.It may help to soothe the lining of your intestines.You seem to have a pretty severe case.I know it helped me stop days and days of d after my gallbladder was removed.
I too was on Dicetal and it helped me but I didn't take it for very long. The first year of Ibs I never left home and spent most of the day running to the john too.I lived on water and crackers for months.Even that ran through me!I got weaker and weaker and the new doc told me to get protein.Eat small amounts of meat.Easier said than done huh!
It did get better though and you too will find the right combo it just might take some time.

I really feel for you and hope you can find some relief from the d and then everything else will come along too.

try the slippery Elm and seee if it helps.Good luck to you.
