Hey Tom - Been reading your posts on/off for a bit, but please excuse me if I missed this, did you ever go to the doctors in the end?
The reason I ask, I was getting serious problems with my stomach (gut-rot). I didn't think much about it at the time, just me eating badly. I ended up going to the GP's for other reasons, but spoke to my Doc about the symptoms I was having. The Doc ended up prescribing two sets of tablets (one for the IBS and the other for the constant acid-reflux), plus we worked up a food diary to make note of what upsets my innards the most.
Both set of tablets helped a lot to start with, but more importantly the food diary. What effects me the most might not be the same, but my main three culprits are; cheap pasta ready made meals, apple skin and milk/cereal.
Not the most obvious foods?!?
Currently I only take one IBS tablet per day, and am much, much happier for it (my stomach thanks me).
Ohhh and it's any help, additionally I'm on the max dosage of anti-depressants, one hormone tablet and a minimum of two injections per day. Some days I feel like a human pincushion with the amount of blood tests and injections I have to do.
If you haven't been to the GP's I would highly recommend going.
As for mentioning it on your CV - No!
Your CV is tailored to each job you apply for, highlighting what skill-set you have for that position.
I'd mentioning it in passing on your last interview, waving it off as a mild inconvenience to yourself and not others.
Be good!
