I would stay away from acidic things like oj and salsa. At least for a day or two after the scope I'd stick to bland foods like rice, broth, lite soups. Then work in other foods. The pain you are feeling is probably from the gas they pipe in your colon so they can see. The just has to pass (no pun intended). You could keep a bland diet then add one food in at a time and see how your body reacts. With IBS, food isn't the only trigger, stress and anxiety can get it going to. For that try walking to work the stress out and stretching. It gives your body another outlet for the stress instead of your gut.
Good luck!
