Hello! IBS is of many types like IBS-D, IBS-C and IBS-M and accordingly they are treated. But you havent mentioned your symptoms.Please upload your symptoms soon. Also see carefully have you really lost weight or not, if yes then how much and whether it can be due to diet restriction done voluntarily. Also tell about other symptoms like fever, pain abdomen, appetite, any blood in stool.So please make clear about this all, further advise can be given accordingly. I hope this will help you.
