Hi:
I too have Malabsorption and I did go see a professional nutritionist and it cost me $200 for one session. After that I educated myself and I am doing great. I will not pay $200 bucks when I can do my own research and educate myself. I had a worse case of Malbsorption with diarrhea every single day for over 50 years and no Doctor could figure out what was wrong with me besides them telling me that I have IBS what bullshit that was. I did find a wonderful GI Doctor that had me do the Malabsorption Test and she recommended me to see a Nutritionist which I did. My diet is limited, I do missed the garlic, onions and potatoes and many other foods, but you must do what you need to do.

I think IBS is the catch-all term for not knowing just what the problem is. That's my impression.
Can I ask, what is a Malabsorption Test? I've suffered from weight loss, GI problems for 3 years. Exhaustive work up at Mayo and this was never raised. Could be radiation enteropathy as I had heavy duty chemo and radiation 9 years ago. Have SIBO but kept coming back after 2 rounds of antibiotics. No answers or treatment offered by Mayo in the end.

Are you sensitive to things other than fructose? I ask because potatoes, even though high in carbs, do not contain much fructose.
