Here's what I got from my GI doctor: Foods GOOD for diarrhea: banana, white rice, rice cracker, rice milk, white meat chicken

Foods GOOD for constipation: oatmeal, berries, pears, peaches, plums, papayas, kiwis*, raisins, prunes*, chickpeas, carrots, celery, peas, 5 or more glasses water or decaf tea. Avoid foods that are good for diarrhea. *foods are foods I personally cannot eat because they contribute to pain (also melon and zucchini and any food with calcium carbonate added. "Cooked foods always go down easier . .. homemade soup is best.

I don't know which type you have. She gave me more list of foods for constipation. Here's to a pain-free New Year!
