My IBS pain has lasted for about a month now. Have a few days when I feel ok. Then I will start hurting only on right side. Have had a colonoscopy & a CT scan & all it shows is that I am constipated. My dr recently put me on Linzess & I hope it helps but have only been taking it for 4 days so I don't know if it will work. Has anyone else taken this?

Thanks. If the Linzess does not work, I may try this. Where do you get these?

I tried one pill of the Lonzess, think projectile bm, no help otherwise

The V**3 has to be prescribed by your Doctor. It basically cleans your colon of inflammation. If you are not familiar with the iliocecal valve, it is the valve that when open lets the material go from small intestine and closes to prevent back up from large to small intestine. Most Drs. Don't have a clue about this. I discovered my problem by Google symptoms. You should Google iliocecal valve, you will be amazed at what it causes when stuck either open or shut. Joint inflammation, carpel tunnel, irregular heart beat to name a few. I am not at home so I don't know the spelling of the V**3. I also might be spelling iliocecal wrong. Good luck
