Had some pretty insane pain on Friday and then through the weekend. Was so bad Friday that I was actually swearing out loud, which doesn't happen often (I am a good girl).
Then today has been bad again, colon not working properly and feeling like a large mongoose is trying to make its way through my digestive system in the most convoluted manner possible.
Spent about half an hour this afternoon trying to decide whether I should eat a banana - sometimes eating helps, and sometimes it doesn't. Eventually decided not to eat the banana. You see how high level my life is? You see the subtlety of the questions upon which I must pass judgement every day? You see just how incapable I would be of anything resembling a normal life?
At least the mongoose seems to have got wherever he was going. Perhaps he would like a banana.

LOL! Oh my god its a female version of me! I feel so attuned! (though i decided not to eat bananas 3 days ago)
I am currently avoiding toothpaste...I wondering what else I can try not eating....

Hi Sophie, I've just come across your blog as I was looking for someone who was having similar problems to me and really just looking for some sort of reassurance! I just had some tests done by Yorktest. It turns out that I am intolerant to wheat, gluten, milk etc, and despite only cutting these out for 5 days - I've had no IBS, stomach ache etc..... I haven't read much of your blog yet, but wondering whether this might be helpful to you? Have a great day - hopefully with no IBS! Steph
I treat many IBS patients and find all have dysbiosis and food sensitivities. There are ways to get rid of the dysbiosis and desensitize the person to the aggravating foods. It works wonderfully!
