The other possibility is that you have Bile acid Malabsorption which causes diarrhoea. You can be tested for this with a SECHAT scan. If you have this condition, it can be treated.
You can have IBS daily. I had symptoms every day for three and a half months when my IBS started. I worried about this too because I had read that symptoms usually come and go rather than being constant. However, everyone experiences IBS differently. If you are worrying about symptoms, this can also make your flare ups constant. When I stopped worrying, I started having long periods of remission.

Hey, I take sertraline too, I thought the side effects of diarreah with that were just whilst your body was adjusting!? Maybe I should query this with doc too, I've been on them since September 2016! And have had on going issues but my issues started before I started taking sertraline! Xx
