    Hi Elizabeth, quite a lot your taking I'm on Amolodpine for blood pressure, Laprazole for acid reflux, maybe the meds or meno, because I notice I get soft stool at times then normal again, at this time of life anything is possible but you can check with doctor.

    Your leakage and bouts of diarrhea could be coming from your meds. Metformin makes poop a lot. My sister takes it and it makes her have diarrhea quite a bit.

    Golly Elizabeth,

    You are taking a lot of medications.

    I would ask your doctor if it's possible that any of those medications could be reacting with each other and maybe try coming off or changing the most recent addition if everything was fine before that.

    How you get it sorted out soon.
