Wow, I hope so Heather! I was quite disturbed to hear that it would take my body two years to get used to high-fibre to the point I would not have any gas, bloating, or pain anymore! It has been six months so far, and I am still not totally used to fibre, beans, soy, but am finding many ways to cope in the meantime...teas, beano, exercise, food combining, etc...and am looking for alternative healing methods for strengthening my digestive organs, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, etc, so that they can function better and thoroughly digest foods early on in the process. A TCM Chinese Medicine Doctor has helped me, and I am considering going for a homeopathy appointment when I can afford it.
In the meantime, I will remain hopeful that 2 years is simply another deluded piece of advice from my gastro, for he also scoffed at my insistence that fat is a trigger for IBS, he agreed that deep fried food was a no-no, but didn't see a problem for me with other fat-containing meal ideas.
Thanks again for your hopeful advice!
