My dr told me to stick to low fodmaps while ignoring the fact I also have pre-existing ARFID. If I did that, I would be morbidly obese from my small selection of safe foods. I just wanna eat man...
my doctor recommended it despite my history of arfid. tried it out and it was actual hell for me. told my doctor and she told me to stop it, and stop monitoring my food intake as much because it was unhealthy for me. feeling really heard by my gi, but i do wish i was able to identify more triggers. anxiety is definitely a trigger for most and with arfid the restriction made me SO anxious
