IBS Hell

I usually try and follow a low FODMAP diet but last night I ate a dinner that had lots of high FODMAP ingredients and I also think I had a bit of sun stroke (both my own fault, I know).
I was woken up at 1am with terrible cramps on my left side around my heart area. I genuinely thought I was having a heart attack. After 5 mins of this I let out an almighty fart (sorry tmi) so I’m guessing the pains were trapped wind. This morning I’ve had an upset stomach and I’m so bloated that I look heavily pregnant. I also feel nauseas and gassy. This is such a frustrating illness :-( I wish I could go back to being able to eat whatever I wanted.
Does anyone else suffer like this with their IBS?

Yeah I have terrible IBS sometimes, (GP confirmed it is IBS) I don’t know what causes mine but sometimes I look heavily pregnant and my stomach is rock hard. Windeze usually helps me when I have really bad trapped wind so I can highly recommend that although it is quite expensive
