I understand what your son is going through. I had this in high school, but I never knew what it was.

My suggestion is to phone the school and advise them about your sons IBS and just so they know why he is missing so much school.

I am confident that as long as he sticks to the diet (even while at school) he should be much better in about a month or so.

It's gonna be tough for him though to stay away from the chips and sodas because there are canteens and junk food stands around every corner at high schools.

I would make sure to pack him some baked chips and some of his favorite things so he doesn't feel like he's missing out on anything and won't be so inclined to "cheat" triggering an attack.

Good luck, it's tough enough going to high school, but to be sick as well is not "cool"!
