IBS. Gained Weight, Found Blood In Stool. Taken Laxatives. Explain

I have IBS and have gained 17 pound in 18 days. I have acid reflux so I am limited to what I can eat. I either have to
go to the bath room all time or can go without taking laxatives. The doctors is scheduling a upper and lower exam.
Since I finally convince them that I was not over eating and only ate small portions when I ate they found blood in stool
test which I had to ask for. So what does this sound like to you I can't get in my clothes on after going from 122 pounds
for year then in one month I jumped to 138.
