Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Most Embarassing IBS Stories

I have so many it is hard to narrow it down to the most embarassing.

One of the most embarrassing things that happened to me was when my MIL was very ill. We had a baby monitor in her room so that we could hear if she needed help.

She happened to have a D accident in her pants and I was helping her. I ended up telling her a story of when I had D and didn't make it to the bathroom. I was telling her my story hoping to make her feel better and to let her know that it happens to other people to.

Well, when I went out into the other room I quickly realized that the whole family was sitting around the dinning room table and that is where the baby monitor was and it was turned on. I not only told my story to my MIL but to the whole family.

The other thing that really stands out is when we went with some friends to a little Spanish restarant to eat dinner. For those who have been to Europe you know that most little places have one bathroom that is usually right near the dinning area. This place happen to be set up this way. About halfway through the meal I started feeling the old familiar cramps and prayed they would go away but no such luck. I ended up having to go D several times in that little bathroom with tables sitting all around the outside of the door. A couple of times there were people waiting outside for me to finish. I was popping Imodium like candy and of course by the time we left my tummy was feeling fine.

Not one of my finer dinning experiences that is for sure.
