I know exactly how you feel. I'm finally going to break down & get an AD or something from my doc to help deal with this.
as for advice, all I can say is to try & stick to the diet. It does help. As for the bloating & gas, drink lots of fennel tea. It's amazing how much that will help. This is somthing we'll have to live with the rest of our lives but as you'll find from the folks here on this board, it is possible to get stable & learn to live with it. One of the biggest things that's helped me is learning portion control. If I eat too much, even of the good stuff, I pay for it. Try eating about 1/2 of what you normally would then walk away for about 15 mins. It takes time for the brain to register that you're really full & if you are great, you're done eating. If you're still hungry then get something safe to nibble on.
Hang in there, we're all pulling for you
