Find the right dietician. Keep a food and symptom journal for the dietician as well as for yourself. Then go back and see if there are any specific foods triggering your symptoms. Also a good probiotic, not generic acidophilous on a shelf at the grocery store. Go to a health food store and the good probiotics are in a special refrigerated section. And lastly, exercise. Start a regular exercise routine and that should help. Oh, and avoid foods with lots of preservatives ... stick with the basics and do as much of your own cooking as possible. Whole grains, lean meats, and lots of fruits and veggies. I also found that restricting my lactose intake helps too. So I switched to Lactaid milk and rather than doing flavored yogurts I do Fage (it has no sugar and is loaded with protein, I add honey to sweeten it up). Good luck!

Check out FODMAPs diet ... it was too strict for me personally to be on full time but it helped me "regulate"
