Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I need some advice. I bought a new tea, with the following ingredients: lemon balm, linden flower, orange blossoms, chamomile, lavender flower, skull caps, passion flower, valeria root. It was decaf. Well I bought it Saturday and drank it over the weekend ,and on Monday, out of the blue I got D. Woke up in the a.m. with it also, but felt good otherwise. Then I started to drive to work, and got a terrible attack, so sudden, didn't make it back in time. I was mortified!!! Then I had D all day, and night. So I took 1 lomotil pill and it stopped. I ate all the right things during the day and at 2 a.m., woke up with terrible cramps, so then at 4:00, I took levsin, for the cramping. I felt lousy all day today. No relief! I have been off work for 3 days now. Could it have been the tea? Should I have taken something else for the symptons that I have? I have not had an attack, like this since last September, so using these meds is not real clear to me. Thanks in advance for any help.....
