You poor thing. This sounds like one of my attacks. I can spend hours in the toilet in awful pain and I usually end up with D but it can take AGES to arrive. In the meantime I feel feverish and nauseus. I'm not sure what the "other flour" was in your cake but if it was wheat maybe you have a wheat intolerance?
Otherwise I'm not much help on what might have caused the attack. Are you suffering from D or are you a C?
If you're a D I usually take an immodium when I feel an attack coming on (get advance, the simethicone helps with the pain) and I also have 2 buscopan to help with the cramps. And of course my ever faithful hot water bottle. Get plenty of rest, if you're on Heather's diet stick to the what to eat when you can't eat anything diet and I hope you feel better soon. I totally understand where you're at. I'm still suffering (although feeling marginally better since seeing my naturopath) and I've had it since I was a kid. It got even worse when I turned about 15 and by 18 my weight was all over the place depending on how many attacks I was having.
Tell me a bit more about what you're eating and what supplements or meds you're taking and I'll see if I can come up with anything else to help you out. Oh and feel free to email me if you want amyemadden@hotmail.com any support or just some sympathy. Hope this helps a bit and I'll check on this post soon.




thank you so much... I appreciate you being so kind. The flour definately wasn't anything with wheat in it because I have celiac disease so I already know that I cannot tolerate any wheat... as far as what im eating, lately its just been brown rice cereal with soy milk for breakfast, a soy shake for lunch and cream of rice or chicken and rice, etc for dinner.. im on a pretty bland diet because im scared to eat. as for supplements i tried peppermint oil but it gives me bad heartburn because I also suffer from IBS. I basically just live on valium, ativan and belladonna.. which all are relaxants so im pretty much out of it all the time.. its just constant.. and I have IBS with C, so I go for days without going to the bathroom and anytime I take something to try and help me go it just makes the pain worse. It seems like its an never ending cycle. one day i feel good, the next day i cant get out of bed. i can barely even leave the house anymore im too afraid of getting an attack when im out.
if you have any suggestions on what could help id really appreciate it. thank you so much
