I've had diohrrea for five years

Posted , 5 users are following.

I've had constant diohrrea every day for five years. About 3-4 bowel movements per day. The faeces are the consistency of dry peanut butter and glistening. Normal colour.

No pain, though I do have a bloated stomach.

Went through four or five different doctors, none knew what it was. Five blood samples, severl stool samples, an endoscopy and colonoscopy. Nothing.

    It sounds like you need to change your diet. Try to get the flora of your stomach back together. First do this happen when you eat or it doesn't matter? Drink regular liipton tea bag 3 times a day hot or cold , it doesn't matter. This will help with the diarrhea. Ice tea instead of juices. Limit your Sugar intake and stay away from foods that are high in fiber for about 2 weeks, especially wheat and oats. Use non dairy milk. Buy some probiotics to use also. Let me know at the end of two weeks how many bowel movements you had each day. Keep a diary of the things you eat and your trips to the toilet. Cook with garlic . You will see a difference.

      It's funny you say limit your sugar intake and then you suggest Ice tea?? You're talking about a drink of which 20% of it is pure sugar.
