I experience some pain most of the time no matter what I eat. I use 3 mg of melatonin at bed time to reduce pain when it gets too bad. I don't think I can relate the pain to anything in particular.

Following Heather's advice I would eat as much soluble fiber foods (i.e more soluble than insoluble fiber) as possible with each and every meal and snack. You want to make sure you get 25-30 grams a day. Once you are reasonably stable then try adding small amount of insoluble fiber I.e more insoluble than soluble fiber). You can keep your insoluble fiber intake low for a considerable amount of time if you keep you soluble fiber intake high without problems.
