I am so sorry to hear this! Have you ever had exercise in any other form trigger an attack?

I haven't had yoga do this - though I have had vigorous exercise in other ways (like jogging) bring on an attack when I was already touchy or just recovering from earlier problems. But yoga has always been helpful for me, not harmful.

Were there any specific poses that seemed to affect your GI tract (lots of twists, maybe?). I'd tell your instructor, and see what he/she says.

Is there anything else that could've prompted the problem?

I do really, really hope this was just a bizarre coincidence. It seems so likely that it was, but I understand your fear to try again.
