so me and hubby and sister in law went to see the comedian ricky gervais the other night at a theatre/gig venue. i usually HATE theatre type settings and they throw me into instant panic and worry. but i was really proud of myself for a few reasons:
-before we left the house my tum was cramping (ibs type pain) and id started to get worked up about that - just what iffing and making the cramps worse!
-once we got there i had some wine and it chilled me out and i felt fine tum wise. so fine in fact that i got one of those ice cream pots ater the support act - something id never have done 3months ago - incase it set stomach off. 3 months ago -well last year and before christmas, my emet had gotten so bad i could barely make it to work. and i would never eat before going out - especially anywhere like theatre or cinema - mainly incase it set ibs off and i then started feeling sick.
-then once ricky started, he always opens up with a little film - and it was him bieng sick down a loo! great - just what i didnt want to see after eating my ice cream and at the start :-( i was fine tho and just told myself its nothing and enjoy the show - and i did!
so there, i was proud of myself. my husband was too coz before christmas, we prob would have had to leave after the intro!
