This thread is so old. Is there something more recent specific to living with adhesions? I have adhesions on my small intestine (due to total proctocollectomy surgery) that caused an obstruction, which resolved itself. The hospital surgeon told me to go on a low fiber diet. In a follow-up visit with another colorectal surgeon, about a year after the obstruction, the surgeon said I should be on a low fiber diet to prevent further obstructions. She didn't give me any documentation and googling around and reading low fiber books written by physicians and scientists, I have found completely contradictory information, such as avocados ok, no avocados, broccoli tops ok / no broccoli whatsoever, strawberries / no strawberries, any thing but nuts and seeds as long as total fiber per sitting 2 grams or less, quinoa is great, no quinoa, etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a low fiber diet that has worked for them? (I also have to coordinate it with a low FODMAP diet).

I would just experiment, but since making the wrong choices could end up with me being hospitalized for an obstruction, I'm pretty terrified to do that.

Thanks for any advice.
