Nel, do you have any Imodium? You need it.

Are you also having cramping? Do you have an antispasmodic? You need that too.

I keep an emergency medicine kit in my purse, so it's with me at all times. In it I have:

1. Donnatal
2. Hyoscyamine
3. NuLev
4. Lomotil
5. Imodium
6. Beano
7. Equalactin
8. Potty Wipes

The first 4 are prescriptions; the first one is dangerous, so I use it only on emergencies (but it ALWAYS works, for both cramps and diarrhea).

You need to figure out what brought on this attack. Do you keep a food diary? I've been keeping one for over 3 years now, and it always tells me what I've eaten that I had forgotten about -- even days before, which can cause an attack.

I'd call my doctor right now and ask for a prescription. You need some help. At least, you need the Imodium and some Equalactin, both of which are over-the-counter meds.

Get better soon,
Bev
