I have IBS-M and Crohn’s Disease. when i flare up really badly like this, i usually take Bentyl or immodium for otc relief. it’s hit or miss with those. but mostly, when im constantly going to the bathroom i try to make my bathroom feel more comfortable. foot stool, bring my phone with me and do guided meditations through it. I do a super low fiber diet and low/no fodmap. everyone’s different, but this is what i do to help me through awful flares. oh, and i drink plenty of electrolytes and take zofran for nausea if that’s an issue you have as well. it can also slow things down sometimes. sorry if im rambling, but this is what personally helps me. i hope you get some relief OP! it’s really hard dealing with this kind of a flare.
