Everyone has a different combination or recipe that works for them, Heather has documented much of the results of the trial and error process in her book, it is recommended that you read it to get stabilized The First Year: Irritable Bowel Syndrome, by Heather Van Vorous
http://www.helpforibs.com/books/1stIBS/books_1ibs_home.asp

Some of the items you listed in your diet are on the list of sneaky sins or triggers on this site: How to Eat for Irritable Bowel Syndrome
http://www.helpforibs.com/diet/how_to_eat.asp


Sometimes a brand of medication, vitamins, or laxative that works well for one person does not work well for others, you may need to try to identify which ones work and which ones do not, as well as research alternatives.

I noticed a decrease in urgency when I made the following changes, perhaps some of these can help you:

• Eliminated triggers in diet, especially greasy foods
• Added soluble fiber supplements such as Acacia and Citrucel
• Increased SF, such as white bread
• Switched from lexapro to fluoxetine antidepressant
• Added slippery elm on an empty stomach between breakfast and lunch
• Started exercising more regularly
• Used the hypnosis CDs

If you could please post a more detailed description of your diet, some of the experienced moderators can make recommendations.

Good luck
Karen
