You're too funny! What a question!
Ok, I went from constant 'd' 3-4 times when I first woke up. That was ages ago now. I now have solid bm's that can definitely be described as "logs". ha ha
So I am pleased as, to me, those are healthier bm's.

daliatree,
This JUST hapened to me. I finally got all of the constipation out using some Milk of Mag. A couple days later (after giving my bowels a rest), I began my daily regimin of 1T Benefiber at bedtime. The next day I went twice, both soft and perfect, but still twice. I even felt like I could go once more but I held it in thinkung that D was on it's ugly way. I NEVER go more than once a day unless I am having an attack of D. I am also an A so I am either not going at all or am having D attacks. Lately though, with the help of a new doctor and a new diagnosis (long story) I have switched from IBS-D to IBS-A. At any rate, with those 2 BMs in one day, I felt like an attack was imminent (which I can not have because I have terrible hemorrhoids that thrombose or form clots whenever I get D) and I completely panicked, started crying, had to take anti anxiety meds etc... The next day, I layed off the fiber thinking maybe I should just take the fiber every other day. Now it has been 2 days and I haven't gone.
Ok, the moral of my story is that yes, you are not alone in your anxiety about this. We just never know when an attack is going to come and when we feel it might, it is only natural to "freak out" a bit ya know. The thing that I usually do in this kind of situation is say to myself 'well if it happens, it happens and i will just deal with it - no biggie'. That helps some times. Other times, I just load up on the anti-anxiety meds  . Most of the time, I choose the latter.
Good luck,
Dana

Whenever our dog has "D" we always like to see what kind of poo he makes the next time to be sure he's not sick. So, when we take him on his walk we wait in great anticipation till he assumes the "position" and then we watch & wait.
We have names for them: Logs (he's healthy) - The Twister - Pellets - Cannon shot - Steamy Pudding and EW! (can't describe this one).
After we see a "log" then we know he's OK. If it's a Steamy Pudding (when it's cold out and it's a mound that's wet and has steam rising up) we know he's not doing too well.
Does it sound like we have an exciting life or what!!!!
