I was mostly IBS-D for several years, and have been mainly C and sometimes both in more recent months.
Oh my gosh, I'd nearly forgotten about "the walk"!!! I had to laugh at the stories you guys told (even though I was remembering the horrible trauma of it all, too).
I remember my last "accident". We had company at our home and boom, that uh-oh feeling hit me. I started "the walk", went to "the run"(right past our guests); but still didn't make it. Oh my goodness, I was in the bathroom needing clean clothes! I was trying to figure out how I was going to do that without letting our company know what had happened. (Oh why hadn't I gone to my personal bathroom, right by my clothes and the safety of my room?? OH NO, I head right to the main one instead!) I finally just gave up trying to figure it all out and just blurted through the door to my husband, "Rick, I need some clean clothes and a towel in here!" When I came out, I just held my head up high, carrying my rinsed out "other" clothes to the washer. I said, "I had an accident. Happens to everybody sometimes!" And I said it kinda tough and hostile, so no one would say anything else about it! One of the ladies just laughed at me. Oh, how embarrassing!!!!! I'm just glad I wasn't in public that time! Terri
