Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

I’ve been through ALL that. That’s why I took it upon myself to figure what I can & can’t eat. Everybody’s different, I can’t eat meat…(except fish & ground meat) I am a MEAT lover, it sucks…but, you get used to it. Not a big fan of fish…but once in a while I have it. Sometimes I don’t have to “eat” anything…if I wear something that’s snug AT ALL around my waist / mid-section, there will be hell to pay. Definitely not worth it.
What I really don’t understand, is how this happened. I always ate what EVER, but I never left home w/out Imodium. Always had diarrhea. Then everything changed…quite frustrating, especially for my family…since I can’t eat, I don’t cook (much)
C’est la vei ?

It's good to hear you found foods that agree with your situation., although you say you can't eat I'm still usure about the fiber/bland choices to make.
With a very distended belly and a lot of pain with ANY pressure on it, finding loose underwear that doesn't cause pain but stays up, or even my pants is a challenge. I assume my constipation problem is my redundant colon and intestinal adhesions, but have yet to find a gastroenterologist to discuss it.
May I ask how you (or others) deal with this, if it is at all similar to my issue?
