Hi,
I'm pretty much stuck on my minimal diet as a simple mouthful of filtered water can set the stomach off. Occasionally my see food diet gets the better of me but essentially I stick with wholemeal bread max 6 slices 2 slices shaved ham, the kind you can see through, and 6 cups of tea week per day. I may alternate out bread for two eggs. Weekends I try to get some veggies in with a samll portion of chicken grilled. Never enough food to be satisfied and in constant hunger. I use prunes, laxatives and canned peaches for relief although only mildly successful. My stamina is slowly declining and rely on my will power to get things done now. If I eat more than my diet I have to substitues something out or face severe reflux that strips the lips of some skin. Because my digestion is so slow I'm limited to the total amount of food or fluid I can take per day. I would think due to what I have had to do the stomach is probably shrunk by now not helping my situation any.
I wake up each day with the feeling of acid eating away my stomach, down my usual cup of tea which initially hurts but then starts to sooth the gut, If I go 3 hours without something in the stomach I'm back to the acid feeling. So I regularly down a cup of tea every 2 hours. Stress out and I'm back to square one. I eat food which I'm not supposed to be able too and equally I 'm unable to eat some foods that are supposed to be good for IBS. Fodmap was a joke to me. One thing I know I shouldn't eat but enjoy and find it helps sooth the gut when it starts to kick off it Gingernuts, 2 or4 a day. If I let my eyes run away with food I'm in trouble shortly after.
Well gotta cut this short need to get moving to get my tri monthly bloods done.
Cheers
