Sorry for TMI. I have diarrhea?

I do have a sensitive stomach and today my room mate made chili with jalapeños. We all ate it but now I have the shits. I was wondering if this could be the reason. I am about to start my period so it could be that too but I was wondering if the chili is what did it. And now that I read this I feel like it might be obvious, however, I've had his chili before and didn't have any issues. I'm kind of scared, mostly because I have high anxiety about getting sick. I feel pretty much fine, a little panicy but otherwise fine aside from the diarrhea...

    Could be the chili. You mention a sensitive stomach so it might have just been an explosive combination. Drink lots of fluids. Warm baths tend to relax the stomach and any anal irritation. If you have any. Give it a day or two before you get panicky. As long as there's no blood a little diarrhea happens occasionally. I hope you feel better soon!

    Don't worry if you were sick you'd have more then just diarrhea. Too much fiber, fruit, or veggies can cause diarrhea for certian poeple. Somes times even stress.
