oh ok, sorry I completely misunderstood, I thought what you described in your post was referring to how you are now.
so from what I understand hypno has worked for you then and now you can function like a normal human being. that is delightful and you are actually a lot better off than I am, as the diet managed thing does have hundreds of downsides whereas you are basically cured now.
good for you and as for taroh73, who seems to be suffering NOW, I can sympathise and commiserate and say 'you are not alone' but I used to think exactly like this and dismissed the dieting, but especially since the FODMAP approach is a relatively new one I think, I doubt a lot of people have followed it for a length of time for them to be able to say that no special diet for them could work.
it's extremely limited, it's not like Heather's diet if you combine the two and taroh73 or you back in the day may not have tried it for something like 2 months so how do you know that no diet could ever work for some people with IBS? it is difficult to follow, you have to cook for yourself, and following it for one week may not bring immediate relief, but for those for whom meditation, hypnosis or anything else does not work like taroh73 appears to be, i still think it's definitely worth a shot as it really may just work in the long term and all that scourge that goes with IBS may just be magically alleviated...
but it's a good thing that you did the hypno and you are now fine and can eat normally, much better than having to stick with a diet that has 25 ingredients so really happy for you.
