Does your doctor know that the pain is waking you up in the middle of the night? As far as I know, this is not typical of IBS. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong about that. Have you had all the tests to exclude anything else?
Also, now that your D is under control, it is time to slowly and carefully incorporate some insoluable fiber back into your diet. Don't forget, too, that you should be aiming for about 64oz of water a day (tea counts).
Are you taking Citrucel pills or powder? Most people have better luck with the powder. Check the posts on dosage and make sure you are taking enough.
Sorry you are not feeling your best yet, but I promise it will come with time.
