Tonight my bf and I went out to dinner. I didnt really have much to eat and felt fine when were there. Well afterwards we went back to his apartment..and then my stomach started killing me so I told him I had to go.(We have been dating for 4 years so he totally knows about the IBS) So when I get in the car..I feel like I am going to EXPLODE! I am only about 5 mins away from my bf's but it felt like 30 mins! Well GUESS WHAT...I get stopped by a cop for going 7 over the speed limit!(on back roads mind you)...and he comes up to the window and I say look officer I am really sick and I live right around the corner(as I am sure he sees me holding my stomach). He says "well I am sorry but do you know how fast you were going..blah blah.." So finally I was in soo much pain...I just said "LOOK, I am really sorry but I have IBS and I have to get home right now or else!!" He said ok..well Ma'am....umm...make this a warning.....and he let me go!!!!!LOL LOL  SO embarrasing but you have to do what you have to do!

YEah, I guess he had to make his quota of tickets for the months. Don't get me started... In NY I think the cops do a fantastic job but... they have to meet a quota of tickets every month mandated by the dept. This forces the cops to give out tickets (which are a huge revenue for the city) for stupid things when they could be using their time in a more useful way. But, to pull you over for 7mph over the limit? That is just stupid.

I wouldn't have been so nice. I would have straight out told him I was about to $*** myself. We don't mince words where I come from.

That happened to me once when I was seventeen, when I was new to IBS... but I was going ALOT faster then seven over! 
I was let go, but he made me wait while he ran my stuff. I don't tell this to anybody, but since we are all IBSers here (I think I told Nelly and Dalia in NY though)... I actually DIDN'T make it that day. 
It took a long time to get over the fear of being in a car after that...

Oh no Sheri, you didn't make it.
That's too bad. I've come VERY clsoe to not making it to the point that I thought I might ahve to pull over and go behind a bush but never have.

Once I was out to eat with my cousins and someone was in the bathroom so I figured I could wait till I got home. A short way down the road I kept saying "faster, drive faster". We finally stopped at another restaraunt and I walked in like I owned the place (really wanted to double over), went to the bathroom and left like I still owned the place. Of course my cousins thought I had fallen in I was in there so long. They laughed all the way home.
