Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | I had to leave work today

Hey guys. How is everyone. I am a school librarian at a middle school and I teach elective classes most of the day. I went into library science thinking I wouldnt have to teach classes and I could it would be easier with my IBS. I was an elem. ed major at first.

ANYWAYS. I had to leave work today. I was cramping SOOO bad. I started crying about it. ANd the first couple times I went to the bathroom thinking it was D (I am usually IBS-D) nothing happened. I just kept cramping and had some G. Finally I got a little relief but I was running back to the bathroom about every 15 to 20 minutes. Luckily all this happened before my first class came. I just decided there wasnt anyway I could teach my classes today running back and forth besides all the cramping!
I just get frustrated at myself. Like when I have to alter things because of my IBS I feel like defeated for some reason.
I used to be agoraphobic until beginning of this because I was afraid of having a IBS-D attack when I went places.
Well I just wanted to vent some.
Thanks for listening.
