Sometimes I can’t believe my own stupidity!
I’ve thought that I can now eat ‘as normal’ and manage the consequences with the use of loperamide.I have read and been told that a few jelly babies or pastilles can assist with the consistency of 'output'.
However, on my journey home from work, a journey of about an hour, I demolished an entire bag of wine gums.
I could blame Waitrose for doing special offers on sweets but no this is all down to me. I had the most incredible pain and really thought I’d caused a blockage. I contemplated a trip to A&E. I had a bath which provided some relief. I think just lying down would have done the same but it seemed to get things ‘moving’.
I was very relieved to say the least and won’t be doing the same thing again.
But should packets of sweets carry the following health warning:
‘If greedy gits stuff the entire contents of this bag into their greedy gobs prepare yourself for extreme discomfort’
