I also did a low-fodmap diet for 2 months that helped reset my body. It’s an elimination diet where you slowly re-introduce foods over time that previously bothered you.

I’ll answer in a separate post with some of my fave recipes for you, hopefully you find them helpful. \r\n\r\nHope I’ve answered all your q’s if not, please ask more IBS/FODMAPS can be so confusing and overwhelming. It’s really important to remember that everyone’s IBS is different and what works for me might not work for you. \r\n\r\nI’m in the UK  and was diagnosed by a consultant gastroenterologist privately after a year and a half ish of getting no where. It was this consultant that told me to follow low fodmap. When I said I couldn’t afford additional treatment privately he transferred me to his NHS books, for want of a better word. I might be remembering wrong but I think he referred me to the dietician. I reckon ask your GP though - they might refer you. \r\n\r\nIn terms of low fodmap I have the book by Catherine Shepherd who if I remover rightly did a lot of the research on FODMAPS \r\nhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1615190805/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_368NRXCMEE8RT1TP4G95\r\n\r\nI also have the monash FODMAP app (these are the people who researched/ discovered FODMAPs. It has a list of foods and a traffic light system for what’s high and what’s ok - and the traffic light system is applied to portions. So e.g a small portion of chickpeas may be ok but double it and it’s not. Also has recipes, a diary to track symptoms etc. And a booklet on what are FODMAPS etc etc, you have to pay but I think it’s invaluable. \r\n\r\nBe careful with spring onions, especially when you’re new to FODMAPS it can really mess you up. I’ve had several flare ups from spring onions.","subreddit_name":"ibs","author":"That-Caterpillar-301"},{"body":"I recommend this book, saved my life and comes with a ton of great explanation PLUS a huge collection of low-FODMAP recipes: [https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1615190805/ref=ppx\\_yo\\_dt\\_b\\_asin\\_title\\_o03\\_s00?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1](https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1615190805/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1)","subreddit_name":"FODMAPS","author":"00benallen"},{"body":"Hey, I'm so sorry you're going through this.\r\n\r\n\u0026amp;#x200B;\r\n\r\nI've been suffering from post-viral IBS for a while now, and all of my improvement has been from the low-FODMAP diet. The shitty part about it is it doesn't always help until nearly 2 months of strict adherence.\r\n\r\n\u0026amp;#x200B;\r\n\r\nMaybe you're not ready for it yet, but I can't recommend it enough. The lovely part about low fodmap is you can actually eat delicious stuff and still follow the diet.\r\n\r\n\u0026amp;#x200B;\r\n\r\nI recommend this book of recipes (and 90 pages of awesome information about low fodmap and IBS) to make it a LOT easier: [https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1615190805/ref=ppx\\_yo\\_dt\\_b\\_asin\\_title\\_o07\\_s00?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1](https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1615190805/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1)","subreddit_name":"ibs","author":"00benallen"},{"body":"You're welcome. The other symptoms with fatigue, fogginess, etc sound like stuff I've been dealing with. \r\n\r\nThat link is a good one. Another good resource is [Monash University Low FODMAP diet](http://www.med.monash.edu/cecs/gastro/fodmap/). This is the university that studies and developed the low FODMAP diet. I would also recommend [The Complete Low FODMAP Diet](http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Low-FODMAP-Diet-Revolutionary-Digestive/dp/1615190805/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1431635806\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=fodmap). I checked it out from my local library and found it to be really useful and has a lot of good information.\r\n\r\nIn addition, you may want to get some type of food diary and symptom tracker going to help you figure out what is causing issues. I really liked the [mySymptoms app](http://skygazerlabs.com/wp/) for that because it tracks all your food, symptoms, and other stuff in one place, produces correlation reports and you can even print them out to take to your doctor. No affiliation, just worked well to help me figure out my own food stuff.\r\n\r\nI know what you mean. You think something is causing issues, then find out it's not. Or the other way around. It's good to know what causes problems and doesn't - there's no one standard for what works for everyone. It does suck to eliminate so much at once, but I did find it helpful in the end.\r\n\r\nIf you have any other questions, feel free to contact me with a reply or via PM. Happy to share my story and help others if I can. :)","subreddit_name":"glutenfree","author":"mslindz"}]}
