Is this diet good for a redundant colon with IBS?

I've been to three doctors over four years and was diagnosed with IBS/constipation and a redundant colon, which means my colon looks like a roller coaster making it even harder for waste to move through. My current doctor prescribed Zelnorm and to eliminate eating such foods as oatmeal, bananas, bagels, white flour, white rice and chocolate, as they are binding. Seems like my diet is high in protein and insoluble fibers. Lately I've been very frustrated with not getting better, so I went online and discovered this site.

Have I been eating all the wrong foods? Do you think this diet will work for IBS with a redundant colon? Won't the soluble fiber be overly constipating?

If anyone out there has the same problems, please let me know.
Thank you *-)
