I hope you are taking good quality probiotics for your IBS as lately the medical community has seen a link between bad bacteria and IBS.

Since your stomach seems upset and you are post antibiotics, here is some advise I retrieved from a a holistic doc. She recommended these foods: great food sources of prebiotics include all fruits and vegetables, particularly beans, jicama, asparagus, onions, garlic, bananas, artichokes and root vegetables, apples and pears. She recommended against grains and bran as they are hard on the gut.
She advised against sugar while on antibiotics and after --- probably to avoid candida yeast growth. She recommended taking both kinds of probiotics --- those that are live and those that aren't as they do slightly different things. She also recommended against eating any foods you know you have allergies to.
The second kind of probiotic is suppose to be especially good for IBS as well. She also recommended a collagen supplement to repair the gut walls in very large doses. Your local health food store could give you some idea. This and the probiotics should speed up the healing and this treatment also applies to IBS.
My stomach was contracting after the antibiotics and I had a lot of pain and got rid of it with borage oil -- an anti- inflammatory which a holistic doc recommended to me years ago. You could probably ask for an anti-inflammatory medicine from your doc if you want to go that route. I am also on both kinds of probiotics and found a brand of tea that is a combination of tumeric and ginger. This really helped to cleared up some slimy sensation in my mouth which the mouth wash wasn't dealing with. Researchers have even found h.pylori bacteria in the dental plaque, so it apparently spreads around. The Tumeric has a slighty antibiotic property and with consistent doses of tea over several days the the mouth cleans up.

One last thing, since there is a failure rate among antibiotics regarding the H. pylori I am going to get a follow-up test and think everyone should get one -- especially if you have other digestive system problems that would cause confusing symptoms.
