I hope that the nutritionist at your new residence is able to find a good eating plan for you, @artist01 . You said that you are missing a nutritional level. Is that because you feel tired or hungry? I do understand the restrictions that come with the fodmap eating plan. What would type of food would you like to add?

@hopeful33250 Hi again, Teresa. To add a bit more to my response yesterday, I think my nutritional needs are not met right now bc firstly, there are so many foods that cause me IBS distress . I've been isolating them one by one as I realize the culprits but don't yet know which foods are safe. Trial and error. Therefore, I've had many hospital "emergencies". I've pretty much lost my appetite through this, and thus am very weak and dizzy. Since April, I haven't been "allowed" to progress with my walking outdoors regime at Assisted Living due to my propensity for blackng out but am told I can stroll the gardens here at my new residence in Long Term Care, Victoria, BC, once we get rid of the rare frigid temps and SNOW (unheard of here!). Laurie ❤

@hopeful33250 Hi again, Teresa. I'm adding to your query as to what type of nutrition I'd like. I know I'm sadly lacking Vitamin C so far, essentially bc I can't tolerate acidic foods or beverages due to OLP. This morning, the head nurse came to see me (Yay! Young, smart, keen to help.) I requested a Vitamin C supplement so she's going to contact my Assigned Doctor here and request that. Other than that, one of our great Connect members suggested contacting Monash University, who apparently lead the way in IBS research, regarding the Fodmap diet. I looked them up online and read the content of the Fodmap Diet as well as their other website content.
I also emailed them for a bit more info. and will await their response. Upon reading the details of the Fodmap plan, I see many foods I could have IF the kitchen here can comply. Doubtful though!
Hopefully Laurie
