Bobbe,

Whenever I have this type of problem, I can usually pinpoint it to one

of 2 issues. Potato chips or pizza. The yeast in pizza is a killer to me. I

assume the chips are due to the starches and the oils.

If you remember, when this happened It was the day after the party and

out diets weren't the best the day before. Also Marta and I had become ill

with a bowel related issue that am so maybe you had a little bit of our bug?

Are

you still having this problem? I couldn't decide from the email if this was

still an issue or if it was the one time you had already told us about. I

hope this was a one time or infrequent thing!

Okay, here's my long-running problem (pls excuse the pun). On Monday

8/7 I had a hot date. Went around the block 2-3 times for a parking

spot. Felt the urge for a BM. Parked, got out and headed for the

corner coffee shop. It hit just as I hit the door. By the time I got

to the ladies room, I had discharged poop in my bestest white slacks,

all over my shoes, and the bathroom floor. I did what I could to clean

it up. I actually took off the slacks and rinsed them out, put them

back on wet, discarded undies, and went back out looking for a clothing

store.

Just as I exited, I saw my friend (whom I hadn't seen in several years)

walking down the street. I turned swiftly and walked the other

direction 2 1/2 blocks til I found a clothing discount store - and

gratefully some size 22/24 jeans (I wear a 12/14) which fit me - & were

$7.

Bagged my soiled slacks in 3 layers of bags and went back to meet my

friend.

Then yesterday I left the house and got to Staples when I realized I

felt this coming on again. It's 1/2 mile, and I knew I'd not make it to

their restroom, so may as well head for home. Sure enuf, just out of

the car, major explosion, dripping thru the house and into the sanctity

of my own bathroom. At least I was able to shower!

In the afternoon I drove 25 miles over to the beach and had the same

thing happen in the restroom of the restaurant. Had to rinse out the

capris, put them on wet, and drive home sitting on 2-3 plastic bags. (No

restaurant dinner for me!)

Now what in the heck is causing this sudden, violent bursting BM?

Help???

Oh Bobbe

You poor thing! I think I would be a nervous wreck!

Have you eaten anything different? What about Vitamins?

My BMs got a bit runny when I starting taking Vit E oil capsules.

Thinking of you....

Bobbe,

When I have loose, urgent stools I cut back on fat and processed

foods. I eat a high fiber diet such as tuna on toasted sprouted grain

bread, three meals each day. Drink only water. Those changes do the

trick for me, usually after one day.

I also wear Depends to bed on those days since I am a cancer survivor

and have problems beyond the " normal " DS issues.

If and when I stick to this diet, I have no problems. No gas, no

loose stools, no nocturnal stools.

Oh Bobbe,

I feel your pain... I dont have an answer or a reason this happens,

but you arent alone.

It has happened to me, out of the blue, on several occasions. Once on

the way down the canyon to our sons rehearsal dinner...

One in a grocery store at lunch, made it almost to the bathroom and

ended soiling myself and everything around me. Had to go home etc...

And most recently, on the way to Delano last support group meeting.

Going down the canyon, all the delays, and in a very long line of

cars. Got almost in to B-town and had to pull over by a construction

site and open the doors on my car, and go by the side of the road,

with everyone driving by....it was a last resort...

No change in diet, the only explantation could be nerves...I just

dunno. It just happens out of the blue.

I am sorry you are going thru this. It is a horrible feeling....

hugs,

Sharon in Onyx

who is still sitting easy....

What about yesterday? I usually am hitt by something from the day

before. BUT if I had to guess by looking at what you ate....I'd guess at the

potatoes and the cake. Potatoes have starch and that is a biggie for me. (might

not

be for you) Then the flour and butter and all in the cake. Then again it

might be a combination of things? try keeping a food diary a few weeks and look

for a pattern. Just an idea....

Yes, Mel, the first episode I described is the one that happened in

Bakersfield. Now this evening I went out to a community dinner at the

fairgrounds, and knew just before I reached home that it was gonna be a

race for the bathroom. It just started coming when I reached the

toilet; whew! A little something to clean up and my 2nd shower of the

day.

I don't know about you all but that cream cheese frosting on that carrot cake

would have me running for the bathroom too as well as the sugar from the carrot

cake. Yes, cake in any form is a NO NO for me, lol. I got better things to do

with my time.

I attend college so the thought of " running " to the bathroom with the

possibility of making a mess in my pants scares the heck out of me. I limit my

sugars and fats and I stick to the foods that I know won't cause me problems. I

have not had a problem. Once when I was 3 months out, I attempted to eat a

small ice cream cone. Thank goodness I was home at the time cause I didn't make

it to the bathroom. From that point on I have been extremely careful and it has

not happened again.

I also notice if I eat something I shouldn't, the after effects last longer than

a day. It takes a few days to get my system on track again. If I keep eating

foods that I shouldn't, the diarhea gets worse and worse. I find it better to

just eat healthy so I steer clear of bathroom issues.

This also makes sense Bobbe, as you had frosting on the cake the day before

the other episode at Marta's. The Jakes cake was about 1/2 frosting!

Dee, you have my list of current meds - plus I am now on Protonix and

the generic for Neurontin. But this didn't JUST start. I'll follow

Mels advice and begin a food diary to see if I can track down the

culprit...

starting with a full day of nothing but liquids. Thanks for your

response; I'll keep you informed.
