I too had a SBO in August ‘24. Had the NG Tube and several CT scans. You are right its very painful and scary and life changing!
I’m interest to know what “bowel test” you do after eating? I try to listen to my stomach noises and eating very small amounts of food.

The NG tube is very scary... it didn't work for me so I had to have a SBO operation 3 months ago which was traumatic. I was in the hospital for 2 weeks. I am very careful with food and as long as it is bland I think it should be ok. There is no magic bullet unfortunately, but Miralax does work for bowel maintenance.
