How fast can you get the shits?!

[meladeso]

So, if the culprit for your shits is what you've eaten, can it take effect within 30 minutes??!!

I have had from pate

Yeah, happens to me a lot with IBS. What did you eat?

Yep, I've been there.

Pizza, but no IBS

So seems like food poisoning but too quick for that to be possible?

I've had it with mayonnaise before, about 45 minutes after eating it.

No IBS but dome things can go through me at warp speed, it seems. Certainly within abut 90 minutes. But usually it's a one-off, not food poisoning, possibly just something that has disagreed with me.
or if I've just eaten too much

..some things... fat fingers.

Yep - Avocado will do that to me within half an hour

I had a tuna and tomato sandwich for lunch once and by 2pm it was horrific.

Dh is like a canary in a coal mine. He can have a reaction to dodgy food within a short space of time, less than an hour.
Though people after blame the last thing they ate but it could have been something they ate up to 3 days ago.
Hope the shits "pass" quickly.

Weird! It was a massive calzone to be fair

It was painful so I assumed food poisoning

Yes.

As I discovered at my first loves’ big family Christmas dinner....

didn’t get invited back after that

I got it twice from Pizza on holidays from the same restaurant. It took exactly 15 mins both times and my friend who has Coeliac disease says the way I described it sounded exactly like her symptoms so I presume it was a severe reaction to the dough.

Lactose does that to me. Too much dairy?

Hmm yeah if it was huge it could be the dough. If it was food poisoning you'd feel pretty ill and have several episodes of it - it it was just the once and you feel fine, it's probably a one off.

I had a major reaction to a particular type of French bread once. Virtually before I'd finished eating it. Weird.

I ate a Chinese once, within an hour I was stuck on the toilet for about 8 hours.

Yes definitely within 30 minutes. I get it often so assume I must be intolerant to something.

Pizza always... ahem... clears me out. Within an hour of eating Dominos I will be in the bathroom.

If it was shellfish, I'd say less than 30 minutes!

I had this happen a few times, usually from a large amount of wheat based food eaten too fast. I’m not generally gluten intolerant but my body obviously has a limit and if I exceed it I’m in trouble.

Yep DH does with hot sauce. Within 30 mins he is on the loo and yet never learns!

Anxiety does it to me within 15/20
minutes...

Sounds like the dough is the culprit. Thank you everyone for the replies.
