Yikes, Maria--I've been there too. Maybe that's why us IBS'ers have a tendency to eat more or less the same things everyday--tried/tested/true ultra safe things, ultra-safely prepared.
That's scarey. I've even scared the hell out of people during attacks like this, in the past. While on Nexium, I got extremely worried because I had so many more of those obscenely painful attacks. Now that I'm off that drug, the attacks are gone. Truly, though...they do get me supremely on track & ultra-conscious. I am so "anal" that I measure everything. Finally, fiber feels fine again & not painful.
I don't anticipate pain, either. I guess, we have to live with our limits. It's frustrating, sometimes--isn't it?
I must add that quitting smoking has definitely made the difference. It's true re: smokers eating air. Not smoking really eliminated SO MUCH IBS B.S./unnecessary pain, cramps,
tons of D, etc.
Poor Sofia, though!
I usually keep it really soft, liquidy, safe on those days.
I literally spoon feed myself.
Kate.
