back from a week-long cruise in alaska. really nice. looked around on the boards, felt confident that i'd be able to find safe food... and then slacked. and cheated. i felt fine for the first half, had a small attack wednesday, got a little more careful... but not enough. woke up yesterday morning (at 5am for a 6am train to anchorage) with *terrible* gas cramps all up my back. had a really bad D attack, the worst in weeks. lesson learned. even if a creamy pasta sauce or some scrambeled eggs or a desert don't get me sick that day, consecutive unsafe eating will.
after the D attack yesterday i took gas-x and 2 immodium, and got myself together in time for the train. i switched from the immodium to my donnatol, figuring the spaciness would help me sleep on the planes. the D hasn't come back, but i've had really bad gas pains and sour stomach all day. drinking fennel tea (only had peppermint on the trip), and just relaxing, waiting for it to pass... no pun intended.
glad to be back, and back in a place where i feel able to take care of myself properly.
