You don't necessarily have to have a specific diagnosis of c or d...it sounds like you already know that you lean towards d. Even if you don't have IBS (be sure to get tested for all kinds of things suggested on this site before you assume it's nothing else), it sounds like meat is a real trigger for you, as it is for most people who suffer from IBS. I don't know if you've been just reading the boards or also have read Heather's books, but even the FAQs and multiple posts for newbies can clarify what foods (and don't forget drinks too) are yes, no, and proceed with caution. You may just have a sensitive tummy to certain foods but you won't know until you eliminate and do the break the cycle diet, then start adding in things slowly. Don't be afraid of sf...if your bowels tend to be loose, sf is our friend!
