It seems pretty clear that you have IBD. You mention that you eat fruits, veggies and nuts....those are things that can cause trouble with people that need to have a low-residue or low-fiber diet....
Lil Gabby - sorry to hear that you are not well. It took me years to figure out all the things that make me feel bad - wheat, dairy, aspartame, sucralose, oats, fruit, raw vegetables, anything with...
IBS is lots of different things I think. Sometimes mild IBD might be diagnosed as IBS for a while....
