I haven't changed my diet much at all between bouts of IBS and now. The main changes I have made which I think have helped is drinking a lot more water each day, and not many fizzy drinks or alcohol.
Ta. I was diagnosed as having IBS after suffering painful stomach cramps for a while. Have had two bouts of it which lasted around 6 months each but am currently ok. Just never heard of UC before and it wasn't mentioned by the doctor when doing blood tests etc
