Have you tried Imodium? I didn't get much relief from it before I found this Website but once I started on Heather's EFI Diet Imodium helped immensely while I was getting stabilized.

You should also take a look at the Break The Cycle diet. It's all Soluble Fiber foods (I add pretzels and Rice Chex to Heather's list) and following it for a few days can really help calm down your tummy.

You might talk to you doctor about something for stress. I do very well with .5 of Ativan as needed.

Acacia has been great for me, also. Start low and go slow.

I haven't known very many tech guys or tax accountants who don't live on coffee. If you're among the majority, you'll almost certainly do much better if you can wean yourself off caffeine.

Finally, be sure you've read through the Website outside the Boards and gotten a good feel for trigger foods, Soluble Fiber, Insoluble Fiber, GI irritants, and all the other elements of Heather's approach. I had horrible IBS-D when I found this site and it's made a world of difference in my life. I hope it does the same for you. If you have any questions, just ask.
