I am confused about identifying my trigger foods. What meal do I look to for a trigger? the one I just ate before an attack, the one before, or one from the day before? I know for my gas problems I have always looked to the day before, but now that I get diarhhea (about once/week or so), I don't know where to look for the culprit. Could it be that there is none, that it's just the act of eating itself? I haven't found any connections to certain foods yet. I am thinking that I may be IBS-A, and when I get backed up, I get diarhhea because my body overreacts to that condition (that's usually when it happens). Is there such thing as constipation-induced diarhhea? I am so confused. I take metamucil once/day, but I still probably only get about 10-15 grams of fiber/day. Should I take more for this? I just have not been eating much because I'm afraid to eat now. Arg. Sorry for all the questions, but I need help. Thanks for any info you can provide.
