Bev, Thanks for the warm welcome and all of your input. I really appreciate just hearing a welcoming voice. I haven't taken psyllium in years. I took it when I was first diagnosed 15 years ago and it was actually what helped me get better. But I did have a lot of gas, but not any "attacks". I've been taking fibercon (but not enough, I now realize) but I like the idea of taking a natural fiber like Acacia so I'm going to order that.
I'm sure it was the steak that brought on the attack, only thing it could be. But I'm not convinced that that means I can't ever have steak again. LIke I said, I've been virtually IBS free for many years and I ate steak all the time. Maybe it is a combination of things that brought it back. I don't know....it's very confusing why it is back. I haven't eaten anything today but white bread and white rice. I'm going to eat this way until I'm symptom free for at least 3 days and then I'll gradually add foods back in. And, yes, (sigh) I guess I'll have to keep a food diary.
Like meat, dairy has never bothered me in the past, but I think since I was dairy free for 4 months my body wasn't used to it when I started eating it again.
Anyway, thanks for listening!
