Welcome to the boards. I also have trouble with gas and bloating and I have been able to make it get better, but not go away entirely. I recommend reading all the stuff that Heather has written about trigger foods, soluble/insoluble fiber etc.
Brown rice is not entirely safe- it is about half insoluble fiber, half soluble. This works for some people but not others so you could try switching to white rice and see how it goes. Also, check what vegetable you are eating, a lot of people with IBS cannot handle some veges, even when cooked.
Also, soda is a big no-no, the carbonation is not good and all artifical sweetners are bad so Splenda is out of the question. This could be the major cause of your gas and bloating- you may want to try giving this up before parting with the brown rice.

Good luck!
