Here is a little anonymous poll for you to answer without having to post to the thread about it. Just want to see if I can sketch out what 'normal' is here..... Thanks for your output input.
Please add an option for "several times a day". Um, for a friend, yeah.
What do you get if you win?
I was just about to eat too. You feeling ok guys?
When I was on shiftwork, it was a couple of times a month. It's so damaging to every part of your life, working those hours.
I put down more then once a month, but in reality it's more like everytime I drink citrus juice so it ends up being several times a week 'cus I love the stuff.
Hmm I don't remember ever having it though I'm sure I must have at some point.
Wot food cause it? Perhaps I can induce a severe case.
I only get it if I get the flu.
Craven,
Not having a gallbladder helps a lot. In my case, greasy foods, food with high fat content and highly acidic foods do the trick for me. Specifically, a fastfood hamburger, Ben n Jerry's icecream and pulpy orange or grapefruit juice make extremely quick tours through my body.
Craven- A long course of antibiotics will do nicely. If you want to prevent the runs, take acidophilus with the medication. The reason that you get the trots with antibiotics is that it kills off the good flora in your intestinal tract while it's killing the nasty buglets. Acidophilus replaces the intestinal flora.
Er - what is the purpose of this thread?

Am I to assume that little k's inner woman is not behaving as it ought?

Buffalo chicken wings. Very spicy. Lots of 'em.
I believe I am armed with enough information to attempt an experiment. As soon as I can find and excise my gall bladder I should be well on my way.
A preponderance of eggs does it for me. Those old days of drinking and smoking all night, then having a big hangover breakfast of greasy eggs and black coffee and cigarettes were killers...
Oddly, though, I had a couple of jobs back then where crap-breaks were simply not an option, and it was never a problem. Not sure how my body knew to adjust like that, exactly...
haha, p-dog, if the wild drinking and smoking and then greasy breakfast wouldn't do it, you would not be human.
working long long long hours (e.g. writing madly to meet the deadline) does it for me. have to turn in a draft of a chapter (YES, i AM writing!!) tomorrow. now i feel slightly uncomfortable revealing this work - organism functions along with my schedule to the outer world...
logging off...
There is this chinese dish named Ants on a Tree....
