Something new even in remission...

Thats what so dang exciting about this disease.  I am in remission and have been for awhile.  about a week or so ago I started to feel "not right".  Wanted to stop a flare before it started.  I went back on the full regi of spinach and sunflower seeds ( was down to just a can a week ).  Started to feel better almost immediately.  Also on the advice of some here I started a Vit D supplement since the days are getting shorter.  Then Yesterday afternoon hit.  WOW.  I can't say it was the disease.  But I had to go to the bathroom 5 times IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY.  That never happens.  Even at my worst it was mostly confined to morning.  Can't say it was urgent, and it wasn't D, but it was ALOT.  Worried about fillin toilet. ( sorry to be gross but... )

Decided just to be safe I would hit my self with a suppository last night.  Now this morning, I've been up for 4 hours and nothing.  Don't even feel like I need to go at all.  This is strange.  All through "remission" I've went once maybe twice in the morning and then thats it... now nothing? 

And I still feel great.  No pain. no nothing.  Just goes to show how weird this disease can be....

Could be that you just ate something that caused that reaction...that's what happens to me when I get ahold of some MSG by mistake.

You'll know soon enough if it's a flare because there will be consistency with symptoms.

Did you eat more food or more of something than usual in the past few days?

Yeah, that happens to me every so often; sometimes it's because I ate more the day before, or if I eat a salad from our work cafe...bam 1 hour later it's causing some serious time on the toilet.

I didn't really eat alot of anything. The night before that I had cooked a beef roast and potatoes in the crock pot... next day no problems. Took left overs and add noodles.... next day was the problem.
Like I said... its just weird. Been all day now and no BM.... although after eating tonight ( a 6 inch sub ) Now I finally feel like i might have to go. No urgency. Guess I'll see what tomorrow brings.
