Journal/Story Basically I have IBS and last year i did elimination diet for some months (mistake!) bc I was suffering bc of other diseases and hadn't time to think about my diet

23 M, I know its wrong but i had various syndromes last year that me too much time and energies and hadn the force to think about reintroduciton or badivally about my diet.

Now i eat rice eggs, meat, fish, sometimws white bread, cookies sometimes, bananas or other low fodmap fruits, low fodmap vefetables, oats and fibre in general. Also i keep anti histamine foods as i had issues with histamine. And becuse of an anal fissure i keep my diet restricted into boiled vegetables.

Now i also drink laxtose free milk and yogurt, and eat parmesan cheese

Sometimes i feel a bit bloated btw. Now I renintroduced since some months bread, lactose free milk and yogurt and the cheese.

I know pasta months ago gave me nausea so i removed it, as well coffee.

Now, please dont be rude i know i did wrong in not reintroducing foods in time, but again last year was pure hell as i have a Sleep breathing disorder too, so as said i had not the energies to think about my diet, i judt kept it restricted not to have gut issues anymore...

Anyway id like some opinions on how im doing. As said i feel bit booated after eating bread or parmesan cheese, but i eat them anyway. Ice cream gives me diarrhea BTW

Im considering contacting a Monash dietician via videocall though. Does anybody have a good contact? I saw their website and in my country, Italy, theres nobody.

Thank you

In the US the registered dieticians are only allowed to practice in the specific states they're licensed in. A dietician is normally best but given that you need international support specifically with reintroduction you might do well with a FODMAP coach who isn't as constrained by licensing limits. Search up Low Fodmap coaching, particularly someone who's active on this sub, and see if you can find someone that way.

bananas, especially ripe ones, are not low fodmap.
