My name is Maureen, I believe I have ibs. Seems I have all the symptoms. Last year got gall bladder out, hoping that would help-coming back :( I also have MS. Looking for low fat and low carb foods to eat. Usually one or the other. Low carb can loose weight quick but the fats kill me. Any help would be greatly appreciated-Thanks

Maureen, welcome!!

Sorry to hear you think you might have IBS. It's really important to get a doctor to confirm it as there's a number of other things with similar symptoms but different treatments.

The low carb thing has been proven wrong, even tho alot of people still believe it. For those of us with IBS, a low carb diet is disastrous. Stick with low fat soluble fiber foods. Follow the approach outlined elsewhere on this site and feel free to ask any questions you can't find answered elsewhere.

Sorry to hear you have MS. I also have a disability which makes eating healthy even more of a challenge.

Keep coming back, this is a great site!
