Maybe I have a bug..

Last night I was feeling pretty good and my mom made pizza for dinner. I have crohn's and so this was probably not the best idea.. but I did eat a few slices of pizza. I felt absolutely fine after I ate it and went to bed without any stomach pains like I usually would. This morning, however, I woke up with TERRIBLE abdominal pains and had d* almost instantly. I figured it was just my crohn's so I wasn't that worried. But then my mom came into my room while I was getting ready for school and she said that my little sister woke up with d* and feels like she might get sick. Ok.. so now I am a tad bit nervous. Right now I'm feeling a little n* but it very well could be just anxiety. I ended up staying home from school AGAIN which upsets me soo much. I have missed about 2 weeks of school because of persistant d* and I was extremely excited to go back today and see everyone. Plus, it is my birthday on Friday. I really am praying that this isn't some kind of stomach bug. I went out into the living room and saw that my little sister was lying on the couch playing with her dolls.. so maybe she is feeling better. What do you think is up?? Did we get the stomach flu?? She has had d* about 3 times and I have had it only that one time.. Now I'm thinking I really am n*.

Not sure if you got a bug or not. But I do know eating almost anything when you have Crohns can give you d*.

I am almost positive we have it.. My little sister keeps complaining that she feels like she is going to v* and I have had d* a lot. She is moaning in the bathroom.. guys I give up. I think I should probably go in the other bathroom. This really is the scariest thing ever.. I want my mom [img]smileys/smilies_16.gif[/img]

Ok.. so my little sister never v* but I went out into the living room and asked her how she is feeling. She changed her story. She now says she only had d* once and just ate LUNCH and is still having gas pains. Ok.. so that eased my mind a LITTLE. Now I am sipping on some grape Propel and it isn't making my stomach hurt. Do you think we are safe?

It sounds like you are definitely safe. Was the pizza greasy? Even if it wasn't that greasy, it can do that to your tummy sometimes. Don't worry, you will both be just fine!

[emmalou]

It was a little greasy.. I am actually feeling kind of hungry. Do you think I should try eating something simple??

[susie_q]

Yes, if you are hungry, you should definitely eat something...simple is a good idea.

I usually nibble on crackers, toast, or soup if I"m nervous.
