Have you looked into lowering your dose of Myfortic? It is known for causing GI issues like IBS. Lowering my dose helped quite a bit but of course it depends heavily on the health of the kidney and other factors.

Thank you I will talk to my doctor

I was diagnosed in my 20's and the test actually showed my colon having spasms. I was advised to change my diet, but it still persisted. Later in life I was put on the prescription drug Librax and that helped.
