Hey Dawn, One thing you want to be very careful about is the presence of diarrhea in conjunction with "swollen" or distended bowel. One of the things that can indicate is that you may be rather developing a mega-colon and the only thing that is getting around the solid stool is the diarrhea. Have you had an x-ray to prove that your bowel has no solid content in it? Before you get approved for the use of Lotrinex, you need to make sure you've requested a bowel series (x-ray). Also, there are bacterial and ricchetsial causes for IBS. Have you participated in a breath analysis yet? You may instead really need an antibiotic or the special formula they're using for IBS. Here's a web site address to research this information. It comes from the GI Motility Research Services of Dr. Mark Pimentel at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Beverly Hills. Hope this helps. Print it off and ask your doctor to read it and consider trying the treatment.
