IBS-C = Predominantly constipation
IBS-D = Predominantly diarrhea
IBS-A = Alternating from constipation to diarrhea

All cause abdominal pain and discomfort, usually accompanied by gas and bloating.

I think we might add in IBS-IBS, as there are some few people who have normal stools, but have the pain, bloating, gas, etc.
