aperson- I am rather new to the boards, but have read some of your posts. I think you are way too focused on IBS. If you are spending a portion of your precious life taking pics of poo, well...need I say more.
We all (with IBS) have different stools on different days. That is just the way it is. What you are speaking about in your post is what I liken to a brownie batter consistency in a tube of toothpaste, and someone is sqeeezing at one end, so it comes out steadily but slowly. Does that sound about right? There are days I have that and days I have liquid and days I have pellets and days I have ribbons and days I have cow piles...TMI, right. It's the nature of the beast, I'm afraid.
What you have is a form of IBS-D, and it is a pain, but I think if you will stick with the diet for a period of time, you would improve. Keeping a journal is good too, because maybe then you can pinpoint the food that is causing the stool consistency.
I do think some people may be somewhat offended by your post. It's better to keep the BM in the bathroom, if you know what I mean. I think everyone is here to help, but we don't want to view your BM. Sorry!
