Hi friends,
So on Monday morning I woke up with crazy nausea. So bad I couldn't move and inch...I sipped some tea and within a few hours it subsided. But, then I had cramping and D the rest of the morning/early afternoon. Since then, I so feel better, but everyone morning I have had cramping and some loose BMs. It's not D, but certainly not normal. I'm an IBS-A, but lean towards C....so this is crazy! I am pretty sure Monday's sickness was a bug, as I was home visiting my family and my Mom got it a few days later.. she of course is back to normal. But even this morning I've had some cramping and loose BMs...it's so strange to have a stomach ache that isn't IBS!!! crazy! it's not horrible cramping, just urgency really. Should I do simple SF foods, or since it's not completely D, should I eat normally? I'm SO not used to going like 2-3 times a day, so I'm not sure what to do. Any advice would be appreciated...or just hugs:)

Aly, Sorry to hear you had a bug. I would recommend just taking it easy on the food until you recover from it. Those things tend to throw off your IBS for a little while but if you go easy on yourself you should be able to get a handle on it again soon. Big Hugs

Everybody's sick at my BF's work. Although I haven't left the apartment in 3 weeks (I know, bad  ), yesterday I started peeing out of my a$$. 
I was SO MAD at BF for bringing this bug home to me... I've been sidelined the whole month of July due to fibro, and I'm finally getting my strength back, and now this. He has the same thing as me. Let's hope this goes away soon!!!

Hey Aly!! Well you can certainly have some BIG (((hugs))) from me!! Sorry you are feeling poopy  No pun intended.
I would definitely stick with more SF 'til you get past this mess. Your poor tummy just needs a little TLC and you'll be fine. Maybe some sourdough bread and some oatmeal with a little cinnamon sprinkle.
Hope you get to feeling better soon!!
