Hi Jenz - Am I understanding this correctly? The diet the dietitian gave you is actually labeled as likely to cause bloating, diarrhea, and cramps? Why on earth would someone give you a diet that will cause the very problems you're trying to address?
If the diet is high in wholemeal, cheese, and whole eggs, it certainly is likely to cause all sorts of GI upsets for IBS folks.
If you're feeling better with the diet you're currently following, I'd trust yourself here, not the dietitian. What matters is what you find helps you from actual experience.
For the sickness you're experiencing, have you tried ginger? You can brew tea from a chunk of smashed fresh gingerroot, or chew on crystallized ginger. This is really helpful for nausea and general GI stability.
Best to you, Heather
