When I have an attack (D for me, not pain) in the middle of a meal or within, say, an hour of finishing it, I believe it's something I ate at that meal. To me, that seems like a trigger. Of course, if I've been eating a little off-program for a few days beforehand, then I'm more sensitive to everything and something in the triggering meal that wouldn't have bothered me under other circumstances might do so then.

If there's a food or foods you know for sure you can eat without pain (white rice, for example), maybe you could consider eating just that food or foods for 3 days, then adding in other foods, 1 at a time, every 3 days. I know this would be insanely boring and not very nutritious in the short run, but maybe that would help you identify foods that you can and cannot tolerate.
