Chris,
I also have to be careful to balance the carbs with enough protein and a little fat so that I don't get hypoglycemic attacks. Also have found eating frequent small meals or snacks is essential (like every two hours).

Regarding the anxiety/IBS link, I don't know about the sugar but there is lots of scientific evidence for both problems to be experienced together. IBS is a disorder of the autonomic nervous system, which of course also regulates anxiety levels. Sometimes people refer to IBS as the Irritable BODY Syndrome, because everything seems sensitive, not just the tummy!
