Am I the Only One?

[samara's on tv]

Am I the only one who DOESN'T get freaked out when I get D*? I mean it happens so often for me cause of my bad stomach and poor eating choices, and I always think "Better for it to come out the other end." I mean I have it so much I don't equate it with being sick or coming down with a virus. Am I abnormal? Am I weird? IS there anyone else out there that feels this way?

I don't either. Without my gallbaldder I have a hard time digesting fat, so I do it all the time! I guess I like to eat too much!

[mitch04133]

i don't to freaked when I have d* either. I welcome d* as opposed to v*. And usually I get it cause I eat so much junk.

[emetojackie]

nope it doesn't bother me at all! once I did get a tiny bit scared, but i forgot in about a minute! really doesn't bother me! I'd rather D* than V* ANY day!

[one who squeaks]

You're not alone. I have difficulty digesting/absorbing fats (pancreas
scarred, no gallbladder, liver hiccups often), so I have constant
steatorrhea. I also tend to go overboard on sugarfree cookies/candy and
suffer the consequences later. ...TMI, lol. I can't
remember the last time it really bothered me.

Damn, I really do love sugarfree gummy bears. XD

Hi everyone.


I have just had some d*. I have been feeling s* all day and in a way I am glad I have d*. Perhaps now I am clearing what ever it is out. I would give anything to have d* instead ofv*. If someone told meI was going to v*tomorrow I would rather die before then.


The only thing about d* is that now I know I have somethingwrong so I amworried that I will v*. I have just taken one of my anti sickness tablets so (touch wood) (have to say that!) I will be okay.


Yep, D* is welcome. Rather that than V* !!!!!

Aww, I wish I could jump on the bandwagon and say it didn't scare me out either, but it does! I get it so rarely...in fact, I can only recall two occasions in my life where I've had it bad (not even accompanied by v*), butthe thought of itstillfreaks me out! I suppose if I got it more often I'd be more used to it.


You guys are right though: better than coming out the other end!

I have D all the time too....because i have ibs and have had my gall bladder out too. The only time it really bothers me is when it's like pure water and i feel bad....most of the time i just have it and i don't feel bad with it...then i know it's just ibs and not a sv......if i feel very weak and sick to my stomach with it...then i will start to worry. I would rather have D 100 times a day than v.

[hippychick]

It never ever used to bother me until I got IBS and the nausea I get now with D* is awful. The nausea usually passes after 20 minutes but it's always so icky feeling

[laneyb]

I get problemson and off with my stomach, (IBS related)d* never bothers me in the slightest, in fact its kind of a relief to be getting rid of stuff!!


I always suffer too when Ive heard of stuff, like current news reports in the UK, I only have to hear the words winter v* v* and that sends me straight to the toilet. I guess its just a defense mechanism that my body has....... hear bad stuff, get dodgy belly, everything will be Ok etc.

D* doesnt bother me much at all. Id much rather prefer it to come out there then you know where. I usually get it a lot too b.c. of stress and eating.

[crimgoddess]

I actually kind a like a decent case of diarrhea every once in awhile (I get it pretty frequently- I think due to the fact that I'm a veg and the bulk of my diet consists of fruits and veggies). It cleans me out- and the next day I always feel really thin, lol.
