what is the fastest transit time can possibly be? can I be empty yet? ate dinner at 7.30 (ish) runs started about 20 mins later have been on the loo for most of the last few hours.

is the food I ate this evening out or just much further up the system waiting to get me out of bed in a rush in a couple of hours?

(I guess I am asking if it is safe to got to bed'?)

ok have come to bed but no idea if i should try to get to sleep of if I should wait for a random amount of time to have passed before. wwyd?

what did you eat for dinner? The only thing that is likely to affect you that fast is something that contains a chemical toxin (i.e. shellfish toxin), as its not enough time for living bacteria to multiply and start making you ill. But it could be something from earlier that just happened to start making you ill over dinner. I would just go to bed and hope for the best. Shellfish poisoning can last up to a day but may be over quickly, depending on the dose which is not really possible to measure. Good luck!

thanks, I will go for now and try to sleep then. (had steak for dinner supposed to be romantic anniversary meal!)

I would go to sleep as your body probably needs a rest, if you need to go you will wake up. Ad if you don't make it, well that's not so bad is it!?

Don't know if you are still up, Greyskull, but it might be worth putting a sanitary towel or unfolded disposable nappy into your knickers.

Made me feel more reassured with the last atrocious dose of the runs I had (and did save my underwear at least once Blush).

thanks ladies,
went to bed had towels all over the floor and I slept on a towel but thankfully it all seems to have passed.
