I think if you are concerned about anything - any change in your condition, any different symptom or any ache, pain or twinge or anything which is causing you some apprehension the you SHOULD contact your clinic. It might be nothing or it might be something and it isn't worth waiting and ignoring something, get it seen to and then at least you'll know, you'll no doubt go through stress waiting and wondering. Don't ignore a change in your condition, don't till you next go to your clinic, raise your concerns early. Hopefully it is just diarrhoea but then again even a simple bug can stop you absorbing the drugs you need etc. Take care and get in touch with your clinic or at the very least your GP though I would think your clinic would be the most appropriate.

Hi Katie.I understand what you are saying,and i agree with you, but I must have the worst GP in the country, I never see the same one, and always have to tell them what I have,Yes looked up other Doc's but just don't know if i am doing right from wrong, they could be worse than I've already got. I have told my consultant but she just smiles at me. I have asked my neighbor next door who is the only one i no here,and she go's to the same one as me.2 out of 3 look at me as if I'm a peace of ===== I only have been to see them 3 times since last Nov, so I'ts not like I'm on there case 24/7 Ahhh sorry had a mone

The liver clinic I attend keeps an eye on me,even after several years. I am sure if you contacted them the clinic you are under would help.
