At 4am this morning, I got out of bed to use the bathroom and bashed my foot against the bottom of the bathroom door. After the yelling and cussing, I realized that my second toe was broken. My husband got some tape and we taped it to the 3rd toe. It hurt a lot when I broke it, but not so much once it was taped. Here is the weird part. I am IBS-D with attacks of severe pain. I have been following the diet and haven't had a severe attack for 5 weeks. Within 10 minutes of breaking my toe, I went into a full-blown attack - lots of pain, nausea, hard to breathe, lots of gas, but no D. Is this a stress reaction? I've never had that happen before. I had to take some anti-nausea and pain medication to stop the attack. It is now 12:30pm and after sleeping off the effects of the medication, I feel fine (except my toe hurts ).
Does this sound familiar to anyone?
