Well, I wasnt feeling great yesterday morning, but I was feeling much better by the time dinner rolled around at 5pm. I tried to stick with safer foods, but I must have ate something bad because I spent nearly all last night with horrible cramps and lots of bathroom time with D. My stomach has been churning all night, and the Immodium hasnt seemed to help very much.(Ive taken one and a half, but I worry too many might just make it worse) Is there ANYTHING else I can do beyond my staples (Tea, my Benefiber, GasX, Immodium, heating pad) that will help quiet this or do I just have to see it through? Also, here's a list of what I had yesterday. Can any of these provoke a strong reaction like this (has anyone had past bad experiences with any of it)? -A few slices of smoked Turkey -Sweet Potatoes -Broccoli -A sugarfree cookie -Two Fig Newtons -at about 9pm, I had another small Turkey sandwhich.
The turkey was fairly low in fat (and since I had no "floating" in my D, I'm guessing my fat content was kinda low) and I only had a little. I took two beano beforehand, but none of the other stuff has ever bothered me. The only two new things were the Turkey, the cookie, and the fig newtons, but would they provoke such a strong reaction?
Anyway, it looks like I miss some work today and sit with my heating pad and my tea. I was working on three weeks without a really big attack(some small more managable ones, but nothing like this). I wonder if maybe something I ate was just bad and not a trigger.
Thanks for letting me vent. It just really stinks because I had been doing really well (and that turkey was really good-I was hoping it would be gentle). Now back to resting, tea drinking, and listening to my gut's new sound system.
