Review of postings discussing IBS friendly diets from today. http://www.helpforibs.com/messageboards/ubbthreads/ Fri, 13 Dec 2013 14:27:51 -0800 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 05:04:15 -0800 http://www.helpforibs.com/messageboards/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Board=yoga&Number=370720 http://www.helpforibs.com/messageboards/ubbthreads/showfthreaded.php?Board=yoga&Number=370720 hi- I've been scanning through the forums and can't seem to find an answer to my issue, so I figured I'd just post (first time!). <br />I've had IBS-D for ~8 years, in the last 6 months it's been fairly out of control. I drive my mom (82) and the control issue is a concern (are we near a bathroom?) I've been on a severely restricted low residue diet (white bread, saltines, pasta, rice, potatoes) for about a month and even that makes me gassy and nauseous. My GI dr did another round of tests for bacteria (negative) and wanted to put me on Questran- I'm super reactive to meds and feared for severe constipation...but that still isn't answering the nausea question. the doc prefers I not take as many Imodium as I was taking (2 every other day). <br />Wondering if anyone has any ideas? I miss food! I'm taking the peppermint caps (having reflux at night- when I take my Prilosec, go figure) and using the peppermint and fennel tea. Nothing tastes the same, from the teas to pretzels. I'm lost. <br />Any ideas are appreciated. <br /><br /> <img src="/messageboards/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /><br />IBS-D, migraine, arthritis
