Welcome to the board,

It is really important not to self diagnosis IBS but to get a firm diagnosis from a GI doctor. If you are IBS-C then it can take weeks or even months before the symptoms start settle down on the diet. They likely won't go away completely but they should be more manageable.

Check this web page for tests you might ask your GI doctor for to rule out things other than IBS. Tell us how you appointment with your GI doc goes.
