Fodmap diet

[Eastbourne11]

Hi I have been on the fodmap diet for 1 year with no diarrhea during that time. Now my IBS D has suddenly gone out of control i am having to take Loperimide 3 times a day. Can anyone advise me?

I had this at the start of the FOD map, after a few months. I would recommend trying to eliminate certain foods again, one food one week at a time.

Are you strictly sticking to the FOD map diet or have you re introduced some foods already some time ago? If so, start with those by elimination, just one at a time so you can figure out which.

I stick to it and I’m fine with gluten if I hve it every now and then, like once a week, but if I have it several days in a row mine plays up.xx

Hi thanks for your reply. I have stuck strictly to the diet as it suits me and keeps my weight steady. I cannot inderstand what is going, I am not gluten intolerant neither am I allergic to anything. I am quite disappointed. But thankd anyway.

Your body can randomly develop an intolerance to something at anytime, so it might be something you were fine with before and now aren’t. Hopefully you get it sorted soon whatever it is x

Hi thanks for your advice. I will watch my diet, but at the moment D is constant. So its back to the drawing board for me. Thanks.
