Hi Mike,
Unfortunately the herbal blend given to you are mostly laxative ingredients. Aloe is considered a harsh laxativie and so are the other herbals in the formula. For an individual without IBS, these ingredients help to soothe the gut, but they are much too abrasive for IBSers. Also, Calcium magnesium can make diarrhea worse. You might want to consider Calcium carbonate. Stress is also a huge factor in IBS "relapse".
I hope this helps and you are feeling much better very soon!
Erin
