You have been seeing enough doctors about this, with little effect -- am I reading that right?
I would suggest, eat what becomes you. Everything else won't make you healthier, and probably won't help you become more athletic or maintain your weight. You'll "get cancer" if you don't make youself sick? Sorry to say that, but your husband has a strange sense of humour.
Sometimes one can start with things one likes but cannot digest well in small doeses, well-cooked and well-chewed. Maybe some specific supplements can help, either help you digest, or make up for lack of micronutrients throuh a limited diet. A good nutritionist might be able to help. There are a lot of snakes oil salespersons out there, unfortunatly.
AFAIK keeping muscle mass is more a thing of training and of sufficient food than of optimizing macronutrients (unless you are competing). Cheese, especially half- or low fat cheeses and sour milk cheeses have a lot of protein. Potatoes, well, whole peoples have been living on a diet of mostly-potatoes, as plant-based protein source they are not bad.
I have a link to a web page, in German, unfortunately, where you can have your diet analyzed to the last micronutrient. There has to be something similar in English. You could use it to get most out of those things you can eat.
I seem to remember reading some, hm, kind of "tough gal"-approach to IBS on gokaleo, but I cannot seem to find it anymore. Might be worth looking for it.
Take it slow, don't hurt yourself by eating things your body is not ready for, and, sometimes it gets better if you do not force it.
ETA: Wasn't at gokaleo, was at Your Eatopia: Tummy Troubles. I cannot evaluate the quality of the source, so just throwing it in here.
