Hi thanks for the welcome 
Eek well if I list what I ate in the past 3-4 days i gonna get a big "well there ya go, self inflicted" 
Ok will come clean. I used to be able eat what the heck I liked, my IBS was very mild and I put up with the odd flare ups I used to get, but in the past year they have got more often and far more painful.
I tend to have an attack of cramps which last about 10-14 days and then forget i do suffer and go back to eating what the hell i like.
So past 3-4 days, - left over candy from hallowean and a pizza from good ole East side marios, but the night of this flare up Thursday, I was fine up until I ate 3 cookies and then 30 minutes later the cramps started.
Ok I could say well there is the trigger, but I have been eating things like this for years with no real effect.
So I guess my question is, what sort of plain diet should I be on to start with and due to the awful cramps, do i stop fibre until calmed down?
My other question is, am I alone in going through so many doctors relying on blood tests and tummy prods and questions to diagnose IBS? When asked about doing an internal you always get the same repsonse "no alarm symptoms and blood work normal"
Thanks for your help
