Hello,

All symptoms as you mention are signs of irritable bowel syndrome. This problem has many causes which are:
**Genetic factors, low production of enzyme or high production of hormones like motilin in the gut.
**Reaction to various foods like raw onion etc., as you may be well known.
**Anxiety and stress which creates disturbances in stomach and intestine.

All these factors can cause loose motion, acidity, chest discomfort, pain, cramps in the stomach and frequent bowel movements. More Than a drug therapy, it needs diet modification and life style changes like:
**Avoid foods causing gut frequent bowel movements.
**Reduce consumption of coffee, drinks.
**Take 8 hours of sleep.
**Take fresh fruits.
**Take curd and milk mixed in solution form.
**Reduce consumption of fatty foods.

For drug therapy as you have already taken, you can consult a physician but I tell you, in IBS, dietary modification and life style play a greater role in cure.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar, Dentist
