Bowel problems

Posted , 2 users are following.

Since just before Christmas 2015 I have been having gut problems. Every few days I will have a spell of several days in a row with a daily bout of diarrhoea which just pours out. It is usually quite dark in colour but subsequent stools, some hours later, are pale by comparison and normally formed. My diet is fairly consistent and I usually only drink wine one or two days a wekk at social events. My weight is not changing much and although I feel a bit bloated at times I do not have too mush trouble passing wind in public, fortunately! I wonder whether I have a problem with my bile poroduction but am wary of self diagnosis.
