You can actually use dietary measures to determine if fructose malabsorption is a problem. Have a look at the information in the first two links in my signature. In particular, have a look at the table at the end of the first reference which list foods that are high in excess fructose. By excess fructose I mean foods that contain more fructose than glucose such as apples, pears, honey, high-fructose corn syrup, etc not thing such as sucrose which contains equal amounts of fructose and glucose. Try removing these foods from your diet for 10-14 days and see if you notice an improvement.

Fructose malabsorption falls into a broader class of problematic foods called FODMAPs. You might find a reduction or elimination of some other foods containing these ingredients useful for managing IBS symptoms too.
