Going out with people, having an IBS attack, and having to spend most of the evening in the bathroom.

I can relate to that one too! IBS can be embarassing for sure. Ongoing, I find my memory problems cause me the most embarassment. My brainfog is brutal.

I had this horrible flare one day at work with my new boss. Luckily he was very understanding on my situation and let me sit in a chair. He was standing on the computer and I was sitting right next to him showing him how to use our system. I went to lean over and lost my balance in the chair (I lose my balance a lot) and i face planted it right into his crotch.

Since I look completely horrified he tried to make the situation better by laughing, but I couldn't help but face palm myself all the way home that day.

I have to agree with the brain fog... the past couple weeks .. at work i go to clock in and cant remember the phone number.. tryed every number couldnt figure it out, then the next week i couldnt remember a client id number to clock into work i wish i could figure out a way to not feel stupid. I am afraid that i can never leave this job beacause of the fibro.

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
