Hello Anon
Thank you for writing.
It may be worth it for you to get a Hydrogen Breath Test - a pretty simple test - that can tell if you have bacteria in your small intestine that is causing this. I almost became a shut-in at once stage due to IBS-D and IBS-C. The test showed I had this bacteria, I was given medication and felt far better and the bloating - which was insane - ended. It still can happen but I got about 80% relief.
There is a diet you can follow called the FODMAP diet- this is specifically for people with digestive disorders. Please take a look at the website by Kate Scarlata - she is a respected authority on this topic and there is an enormous amount of information you can read, as well as clear and very lengthy "eat this not that" menus.
