OK, I at cooked carrots and chicken for dinner. Next day I had severe pain. I had vanilla ice cream for desert the next night. Severe pain next day. Was it the carrots or the ice cream which is dairy? I can't figure it out. So, tonight I ate baked potato and chicken. Pain is starting again. I think I should only drink Electrolit for dinner.

I can see you are you are trying, keep working at it. How is your portion size? Are you eating small meals several times a day or larger meals? Sometimes, small portions can make a difference.

Have you considered asking your doctor for a referral to a registered dietician?
