Hi,

I've had IBS for approximately two years, and have pretty much been through the mill of tests and medication, and have decided to set up a blog to document my experiences. You can follow me at mylifewithibs.com

I'm about to go travelling in a couple of weeks, which I'm panicking about and after reading the FODMAP diet, am about to start this, as after very limited results with medication etc, I think this might be my best bet, so fingers crossed!

As you're going travelling, if you have an iPhone, you may find it useful to download the FODMAP app from Monash Uni - saves taking a book and is the best info on the diet available.

Have a great trip!

Thanks, cheers for the tip! FODMAP seems a lot to digest at first, but if I can find some relief from symptoms I'll be happy :-) Yeah pretty scared about travelling, but I've been telling myself for ages now that I would try it, I dont want to let IBS ruin everything x
