IBS: In irritable bowel syndrome, it is not unusual to have loose stools at times. It is often helpful to increase the amount of fiber in the diet, and perhaps to even take fiber supplements such as Metamucil. If you do, you should increase your liquid intake also. You should have your bilirubin rechecked and evaluated if it is still elevated down the road. Good luck.
