Stomach pains

Hi. So I’ve been told I’ve got gastritis and well as symptoms of IBS the more I research on both the more I’m learning. I’m a young person making it hard for me to try and change my diet. Does anyone have good advice on how to help me with this. I’ve been suffering from stomach issues for a good 5/6 years and really want to improve my health as it’s taking over my daily life

Thank you x

If you, just, think that if you change your diet you will not have many of the health issues you currently have, surely, that should be incentive enough.

Why don't you ask your GP to refer you to a dietician, when you will find a fodmap diet will, almost, certainly help. Good luck.

Hello there,

Have you tried working with a registered dietitian?

I went to the GP and he said there wouldn’t be any point as they wouldn’t be focusing on my stomach issues just working on my diet 🤷🏽‍♀️
