IBS sucks! I hate it! I get both extremes. It's sad when I actually get excited about having a normal um...deposit.
I was doubled over with the pain earlier today. It wipes you out.
And sitting here with a migraine...you're right...it's like everything is passing by.
Yet forcing myself to get out there too is almost like a double edge sword. So I'm not gonna recommend pushing yourself or going places with a roll of the good TP under your arm.
I have yet to figure out why we are like little caged birds. We just want to fly and yet it's like someone has clipped our wings.
So, until we figure it out...bring in a TV tray into the bathroom, set up shop in there and get a second phone line installed next to the TP holder. Splurge and get the comfy air cushioned toilet seat ( you know the kinda that goes Whooosh when you plop your tushy down).
Sending you lots of hugs and prayers hun.
And if you are anything like me, you'll be tempted to shed a few tears because so many people here want to help -- just know how lucky we are -- and let the warmth surround you for awhile :)
I understand what you mean about going out -- and the risks -- and yet it's not a lot of days that it takes over me. If so, I would probably try some of the other tests suggested here too.
Also, if I'm feeling a little secure, but not bold about going out, I'll invite someone over! A friend for a cup of tea...cocoa....it can really brighten someone else's day....and ours too.
Hoping you feel much better soon!

Gas-sy Poopie
The kind where it's so noisy, everyone within earshot is giggling!
Drinker Poopie
The kind of Poopie you have the morning after a long night of drinking. It's most noticeable trait is the skid marks on the bottom of the toilet.
Corn Poopie
(Self explanatory)
Gee-I-Wish-I-Could-Poop Poopie
The kind where you want to Poopie, but all you do is it on the toilet and fart a few times.
Spinal Tap Poopie
That's the kind when it hurts so badly coming out, you swear it was leaving you sideways.
Wet Cheeks Poopie (The Power Dump)

The Suprise Poopie
You are not even at the toilet, because you are sure you are about to fart, but, OOPS---a Poopie!
The Dangling Poopie
This Poopie refuses to drop into the toilet even though you know you are done poopie-ing. You just pray that a shake or two will cut it loose.
The avalanche poopie, that is the one that consists of lots of tiny little poopies that pile up and cover the entire bottom of the toilet bowl much like an avalance created by fst moving snow.
Rest a bit, and I'm sending hugs and prayers that tomorrow will be better!
