My IBS is hindering my running

I have been successful in the past 15 months in losing 60lbs. I have been jogging on the treadmill at the gym. Unfortunately, once I've been at it for awhile, I usually have gas and cramping, and sometimes diarrhea. I am IBS-D, and it is so frustrating for me, not only to not be able to run for long periods of time, but also to be too scared to run outside because I may have an accident. I am considering asking my doctor for amitriptyline or Lotronex, two drugs I have heard work really well. Any experience with these? I currently take Immodium once a day. Thanks!
