I want to thank Dragonfly and Glasgowgirl for responding. Here is a bit more info about me, as Dragonfly suggested. I am practicing Eating for IBS. I also take the Heather's fiber. My gastro doctor has prescribed Bentyl and Librax on an "as needed basis." Sorry for being so graphic, however, my BM's are somewhat normal, it is frequency and mostly the urgency that is terrible. Coupled with the horrible abdominal and stomach pain. I was in and out of being stable from October 2007 until May 2008, and then I have not been able to get rid of the urgency and the sharp pain and cramping. I feel that if I could get rid of the urgency, I could compartmentalize the pain. I get extremely panic ridden while I am in my car, knowing I have to be at a certain place at a certain time, with that feeling like I am going to have an accident any second. Does anyone have any "self talk" dialogue they say to themselves while driving and these BM urges come. I do take Immodium, and I was curious to know whether a person can build up a tolerance to it. So thank you to Glasgowgirl for answering. I appreciate everyone's input.
