Finally Help

I have struggled with IBS-D since 1995. Three years ago, my doctor put me on an Elimination Diet and introduced me to FODMAPS. What a difference! For me, no lactose, low fructose, no beans, and very low fat because of my gall bladder. Low fructose has been key for me. Only green onions, no large onions at all. No fruit other than berries and bananas. Really miss watermelon and peaches. But I'm in pretty good shape.
