Granny's gone and done it again

I've had IBS intermittently for decades. I can not find a trigger for it. I can tank on hot and spicy Mexican or eat bland Italian pasta. Anything can get me out of bed at 2am. And why does it wait until 2am? Only in the last 2-3 years have I had episodes during the day. If I could find a trigger I could eliminate it. I know I have not been eating jagged pieces of broken glass.

Apples. Applesauce. Milk. Too much sugar. And heaven forbid, prunes or prune juice.

I can eat all the prunes I want and apples. No effect. A steak and baked potato one day is fine and a week later almost a fatal effect pain wise. There is just no rhyme or reason or pattern.

I've read some medical pages on IBS that people often never find a reason for it. I think I just had to be one of those. The bright side is it doesn't do any physical harm. At least not to me. It is only a passing pain.

Mines a problem. I know why.

Mine usually waits until I get out with the animals, or driving somewhere in the car. Nasty problem.

But that's what they do!

So now I am in the ER. Bp was way up this morning. I took an extra BP pill, so my pressure is higher than usual. But not as bad as it has been.

Hope everything goes good, Cap. Be thinking of you

Up your nose yes. They need to take a look. Shouldn't be sticking anything down your throat.
