Everything is running right through me...

Hey guys,

I'm pretty sure this is not a good thing. For the past few days I've been having terrible digestive issues. It started with some bloating and constipation for a day then pain/diarrhea till now. I'm still bloated though and anything I eat goes right through me within a few hours. I'm eating nothing heavy and haven't actually had a full meal because of this in a few days. I've been taking my hyoscyamine two or three times a day because my stomach has been so darn active. But it just eases the pain (only a bit) and delays the BM (diarrhea). Haven't been working the past two days but I'm worried about the coming days.

Will tums help? I take Nexium 40mg twice a day, along with a multivitamin and desipramine. Usually the pain is in the LLQ but now it's been below my sternum. It feels like there's a small air filled balloon, and when I apply pressure I can feel the air moving.

I just need to know if I should go to urgent care or take OTC stuff for diarrhea and some tums. Obviously I can't make a quick enough appt to my GI doc in time. Any suggestions appreciated!

Oh! I'm not officially diagnosed with IBS, although the doc really has no idea what it is. I've done barium swallow, barium enema (omg never again!), sigmoidoscopy and stool/urine samples.
