    Ooh someone else with ibs c! I have problems with fructose and white bread mainly.  Try one food at a time,  but have the help off your dietitian,  any food you try I was told try for 3 sessions.  If after 1 session you get pain stop and write down what it was,  if it doesn't hurt then try again but a little more,  if you now get symptoms then write it down if not try for a third time,  if no symptoms then you're OK with that food.  I tried with stone fruit after 1 time I ended up in pain do had to stop.  Watch your stress levels if you try when you're stressed or your symptoms are bad you won't know if if was the food or not.  Check with your doctor and ask to see a dietitian.

    You must ask your dietitian what's best for you.  They'll be the best people ad they're the experts.

      You can drink anything you like. You have to see how it affects you. Coffee triggers cramps in a lot of people, but since you are constipated things like coffee and fruit juice might be ok. Fizzy drinks sometimes cause bloating but not always. IBS diet is trial and error there's no other way round it.

      Hi Dominic,  I'd ask your chemist they're always a good place to start for unusual requests  or Holland and Barrett.

    Hi Dom, high fibre is recommended a combination of insoluble and soluble fibre, have you tried abdominal massage ?, you do it yourself techniques online show you how to do it, its supposed to stimulate colon movement.

      I have movements here and there just no feel of relief like people who don't have this condition.  Some times twice aweek then others none.  Never tried that massage?  I just been doing walking yoga to keep stress down but still hurt after I eat something small have to wait till my appointment

    Hi a low FODMAP diet can benefit your digestive system which cuts out all trigger foods for your sensitive gut. 

    If you could fill out my survey that would be great ..

    Many thanks
