What helps to relieve symptoms of IBS?

I agree. I have found a diet that takes away my symptoms. However, I started taking dicyclomine for IBS. So far I have received relief from chronic abdominal pain. I still have urgency(I wear a pad so I can go out) and fecal leakage.
My colonoscopy last week was visually clear. Now waiting for biopsy results to see if I have micrscopic inflammatory disease.
I have been struggling with this for years. I have pretty much given up on a cure.

I know all your symptoms, have been in the same boat. Dicyclomine helps with the abdominal pain but makes me dizzy and lethargic. I am now on Entyvio infusion therapy and it has controlled the diarrhea and the cramping some what. No other medications controlled the diarrhea in the past. Let me know what the dr. has to say about the biopsy, I feel for you.

Microscopic colitis is the worst, especially since some Drs don’t take it seriously. Also if they do not biopsy a cell that has it will not show positive.

What is the diet that takes away your symptoms?

Hi @rocknrobbn 😊 and @sonnie27
It is nice to meet you both! Can you please share some of the foods you eat each day on the diet that is working for you? It's so nice to hear that someone found a diet that takes away the IBS-D symptoms!
