that is very interesting, I am pretty sure I was A then, although pseudo-D seems likely as well, nevertheless the remedy is for both conditions adherence to Heather's diet and probably fodmap too, it's not as if there's different things to do/take if one suffers from one or the other, so at the end of the day, immaterial really whether one is C or D or A?!
something else I've been wondering about is that IBS itself can be exarcebated by stress and people suffering with such digestive woes often have a nervous disposition, ie it has been traced back to the gut-brain connection. my question would be, lactose and fructose intolerance, and having to restrict galactans and fructans, etc these cannot be improved through hypnosis or relaxation right, only by adequate diet?
also lactose intolerance is obviously something that comes with age to many of us. is that the case with other fodmaps or are they with us from birth usually etc? (I remember that as a child when I had no IBS I still had bloating very often)
