I’m really sorry to hear you are having a flare up Missy. Linked to your cycle maybe given the timing of things?
I don’t have flare ups as I get pain every day sometimes all day - like today where I had bm at 8:30am and still in spasms 15hrs later. Can’t get comfortable to sleep because of it. But this is all due to soft bms. I am eating very little and all the right things plus laxido and loads of water. I have the melted ice cream consistency and whilst it doesn’t hurt during, as soon as I’m done I have intense burning turning into cramping, knife-slicing pain. Laid off laxido this week to experiment and same when bm was firmer. So yes, soft bms still tear right through me. I’m now at the point I’m scared to eat, hungry all day, no energy and noticed this evening my ribs are beginning to show a bit. Horrendous. 3 weeks until this nightmare is hopefully over.
