    I hope it goes. I've had a bad morning bum all the way and still have at 150mg. I've even been for a colonoscopy..ugh!!. And all was ok.

    I have little control but when I've been I've been. I don't go again. I'm not sure if its maybe linked with dehydration as I'm still really sweaty when I wake up.

    I may just have to put up with it as the sert has saved my life.

    I have the same problem but I think it’s just a short time thing , so my GP says I have been on 100mgfor 4 weeks and have had loose stools and also passing a fluid , hopefully my body will eventually get used to the Sertraline and this will stop .
