I had been feeling flawless for about 3 months tomorow at the end of the school year and a couple weeks into the summer and then, BOOM im getting sick every day...... i have a really bad stomach ache with a lot of diarreah.... it may not be my ibs acting up, but its been happening every day so far and i feel like crap, cant sit up, dont feel like eating.... its really hurting and i got 7 days before my vacation trip, and im worried im not gonna be able to go.... ive been eating yogurt in the morning since it started because i know that yogurt helps with diarreah, and ive been taking my fiber and eating good for me..... if there is anything i can do quick, i really need to know because i dont want to have to miss my vacation AGAIN....

If you are anything like me, the stress of worrying about feeling well on vacation is enough to kick mine back into gear. I'm on prescription med. that helps calm my nervous system and intestinal tract. If I weren't and I were you, I'd be taking Immodium. I used to live off of it before I went to the Gastro dr. You are lucky with D that you can eat yogurt. I can't tolerate dairy, including yogurt. I'd suggest rice, applesauce, toast, really really bland foods. I'm sure others on this site have some great advice. I'm a librarian in a high school and we've had a lot of end-of-year activities (graduation, retirement parties, etc.) Just the excitement of these events was enough to start mine up a bit.

Yogurt's good for D is it? I never heard that one.... I REALLY wouldn't do that, if I were you.

You said Immodium gives you these symptoms - surely not D? What dose did you take before?

What are you eating apart from the yogurt? I'd go for only soluble fibre foods.

Well, stop eating yogurt! It's almost certainly making you worse. The reason you were probably told it's good for you is actually probiotics, which you can get in dairy-free capsule form from health food stores.

Follow Heather's "what to eat when you can't eat anything" diet. That should help.

Are you on a SFS?

I HATE THIS, looks like i may be missing another vacation, especially if im not better..... GRRR
