As long as there isn't any blood in the stool or you don't feel pukey or spike a fever, you're having an attack. The way to tell is you're going to feel absolutely fine between bouts of cramping, explosive gas, and hard rabbit poos.
Remember to breathe, and drink lots of water (which will move things along and cut the duration of your attack). The sweats might make you uncomfortable, so keep a wet towel near the bowl if you need to wipe yourself down.
