I REALLY miss my wine!! (It is SO damned UNFAIR that I cannot have my favorite things anymore - wine, chocolate, ice cream, nachos, etc., etc.)!!
OK enough complaining! What if I drank some Moscato wine? This is supposedly much lower in alcohol than other wines.
Thanks again so much for your feedback!

alcohol and IBS
There's a LOT of gray area here, so be cautious and do some trial and error.

Heather,
What do you think of Moscato, a white wine? It is supposed to have a lower alcohol content than other wines.
I plan to try this after my endoscopy and colonoscopy next week.
Thanks for all your help!

if it's primarily the alcohol that bothers you. I actually do really well with Moscatos and Rieslings (also tend to be lower alcohol, especially the German ones).
Again, have a small glass on a full stomach to test out. And do this when you're feeling stable, not when you're struggling.
