Hi Everyone 3am and I woke up doubled over with cramps. I'm home alone with my one and a half y.o. daughter for the first time. What am I going to do? I'm starting to have a panic attack. These cramps are terrible -- I can't even breathe fully and I can barely sit up. I'm emetephobic - just praying that this isn't going to lead to throwing up. Plus now I ahve the added fear of not being able to take care of my daughter. Oh this is a bad one. If this is IBS, its so severe. I'm so afraid I've gotten a bug. THis is the level of pain I had last time I had a stomach virus. HELP!!!!

Its Thursday morning - on tuesday afternoon some lady pushed on to the elevator with us when there was not space - almost hurting my daughter and I yelled at her for being rude. She said, "I'm sick and I'm going to throw up, okay?" Then she breathed heavily - all over me and my wife and daughter!- for the whole ride. It could have been an excuse but I believed her and its been on my mind. Its very possible that I made myself totally sick with worry over that. I dont' think its that possible that she made us sick. Well the rational part of me doesn't. THis is me at my full blown worst people - I'm so irrationally scared of this -
My daughter's up and crying now! I may have to go calm her down.
