Appreciate your experiences & ideas. Lentils not allowed in my diet. Had not thought of Beano at the start of meals. Please keep helpers coming. Learned a relative has similar ISB-D, though milder than me. Do genetics play a role?

@wdywms - here's a Mayo Clinic article about IBS you may want to check out:

- Irritable bowel syndrome https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/irritable-bowel-syndrome/symptoms-causes/syc-20360016

A key sentence in this article that relates to your question directly says one risk factor for IBS is:

- Have a family history of IBS. Genes may play a role, as may shared factors in a family's environment or a combination of genes and environment.
