Hi all,
I had been feeling quite rough last week and decided to go to the Doctor's on Friday. She said it sounded like I had IBS as I had all the classic symptoms.
She said they cannot do tests for it, but its just a case of trial and error when it comes to eliminating foods. However, after what I had told her I'd been eating, she said that dairy could be the culprit.
I am already gluten intolerant so it's not like its a massive life change because I am used to not being able to eat "normal" things. But its just frustrating because I have to be even more careful when buying anything now :mad:
I got myself some soya milk and I had more trouble finding dairy free spread but found that Vitalite was dairy free. Luckily my gluten-free bread is dairy free too.
I want to make sure I get my nutrients though - does anyone else suffer and if so, do they have any tips?
Thanks :hugs:
