Hi, and welcome, Liney.
Your description of your stomach pain that doubles you over sounds EXACTLY like me. It was also the only symptom I had for years. I think you'll find that following the diet here and starting a soluble fiber supplement will help a lot. And for the double you over pain, I would suggest Mylanta Liquid and if that doesn't work, Gas-X or Phazyme. But the best thing is to prevent it by following the diet.
As far as dairy, even fat free dairy has the proteins that trigger IBS. You may think you're eating it with no problem when it's actually triggering you a day or two later. I would strongly suggest giving it up even though some people here will say they can still eat it. It's just not worth it when there are so many other yummy things we can eat that are so much safer for us!
Oh, and also, even though you've had tests done and you're pretty sure it's IBS, at some point you should probably have a doctor confirm it, just to make sure it's not something else that could be easily treated.
Welcome and keep coming back, okay??!!
