Hi,I was wondering does pepto bismal take care of the pain that usually accompanies diarrhea. Whenever I get a bout of diarrhea I always get a pain on my lower left side. Unfortunately, since the 3rd my IBS has kicked in again & well let's just say that eating has been an adventure for me And to make matters worse, the pain in my left side is just not letting up. Any replies are appreciated. Thanks.FranC
