My gut hurts

Having Irritable Bowel Syndrome sucks.

I've been doing okay until Monday morning when I barely made it home in time from the grocery store. The cramps have been so bad it's left at the point of tears. I've been eating a lot of oatmeal (when I do eat) with bananas. Naps in the afternoon help.

Fortunately I've been working from home. I've also stopped drinking coffee as it is very acidic. I can probably live without coffee... but I just don't want too. I'm holding off any intake of coffee until my gut settles down. When I work at home I drink less but the quality is better.
