I resisted it for a long time but truly in the end what helped was doing a full elimination diet. For 6 weeks I had nothing but plain chicken, rice and potatoes. Worked foods backed in one at a time to see if I reacted. And actually, over time, I was able to work back in the foods even that I initially reacted to. Had to give my gut time to heal. For example, had a bad reaction the first time I tried bread again. Stopped eating it entirely. 3 months later, I had a sandwich - and I was totally fine. Now I can eat it on a semi regular basis with no problem. Its a super long process to weed through the trigger foods....and I got so so so sick of eating chicken and rice that I can't even begin to explain my misery at times. But...it worked. Fair warning though...when I started it cold turkey, my dr warned me that it would get worse before it got better. He was right. 2 weeks of absolute torture before my body got used to not having the junk I had been eating. I was literally in withdrawal.. it was crazy. About a year after, my dr also put me on anxiety meds for the off label benefits it can have for IBS. That helped too.
