I had IBS-C / IMO for a few years and went thru the antibiotics etc, with only temporary help. Finally, i found that 64 oz of water per day and only 3 meals with 5 hours in between meals with no snacks of any-kind including any liquids with calories, along with antimicrobials, gut beneficial supplements and motility support. Motility support included Miralax, Ginger, Artichoke/Ginger, Magnessium citrate and MCT Oil. My problem was started by a lack of some enzymes. After 4 months of the low fodmap, supplements, eating on schedule and some enzyme I now am doing well with a normal eating routine and good BMs. Good luck!

Thank you so much for your response. Very happy for your success story. It buoys others! So much food for thought. Will give it a close reading and possibly ask some follow-up questions if that is okay.
