Zara, I can totally sympathize and I have felt exactly the same in the past. Pre-major stomach problems, I used to eat fairly healthy. I was a vegetarian for a number of years, however began having problems with dairy and soy so I re-instituted meat. I still ate quite a bit of veggies, whole grains, etc. Then randomly started having problems. EFI doesn't really seem to solve much for me personally. I tried to go back to my former way of eating, and had problems with that as well.
In my case, I think I need to come to grips with the fact that I have gluten and casein intolerances, not just IBS. But I've often wondered why I was fine for years, then BOOM felt like crap.
Sorry this doesn't really offer you any insight, except that you're totally not alone in wondering about this!
