This is the same with me, Miso

I lost weight after 7 yrs of losing my weight and strength due to not being able to eat anything with the IBS. Last year the doctors even had to put me on a special IV diet to make me able to survive the surgery that I had a month later. I had to have several severe blockages repaired in my Aorta artery. This is the main artery that flows down from your heart. I had 100% blockage of circulation of blood to the intestine, and 95% blockage of the circulation of the blood to the bowels. So no wonder I was having a horrible time with my IBS.

That was last summer and even though I am still working on getting strength back and energy levels more normal, I am just learning what to eat. I am down to about 125 and as soon as I start gaining a little weight I get D really bad and lose all that weight.

My appetite is ok and my stomach growls when it is hungry which is about every couple of hours. So what would anyone suggest that might be helpful???

My doctor recommended that I take some Psyllium (1TB X2 per day), but that just causes me to have more bloating and gas pressure. Any other suggestions there???? My doctor says that the gastrenologist have told her that fiber is what is helpful and important for IBS suffers. While I have agreed and tried to explain that it may be as simple as soluble and non soluble fiber in the diet, she does not seem to catch the drift, ya know?????

I am frustrated and hoping that someone can at least help a little bit.
