Hi,
It sounds like you have similar symptoms, and are following a similar dietary regime to me, that is, a combined EFI & FODMAP approach. I have similar problems with bloating and have yet to find anything that helps 100%. I am taking a soluble fibre supplement, but find it impossible (not matter how gradually I increase the dosage) to get much above 6g a day without bloating. However, it might be worth trying a slowly fermentable fibre supplement (like Acacia), and probiotics are recommended for bloating. (Align/VSL#3 are the two clinically proven to work for IBS-having said that I've not had luck with either)
I would recommend: regular exercise, yoga helps me. Other than that, getting enough sleep, managing stress, and following the dietary guidelines are all that I've found that reduces (but does not remove) bloating.
Best wishes
