Hello everyone

Hope you are all as well as can be.

I went between diarrhea and constipation ... If you have had four days you should really see your GP just to get checked out you may need some diarlyte to replace the minerals and vitamins you will be losing, but gp won't worry until you have had for a fortnight normally but because of your condition and the heat at moment it's better to be safe XXX

Hi Lynne, oh the wonders of Poo. I have found that it can range from solid logs to very very loose in the matter of hours. I go regularly but never actually know what will appear. Are you suffering stomach cramps because I dont. Keep hydrated and if it persists go and see your GP. Stay well.

Thank. I'm in pain all the time but no cramps. I get constipated too . Please take care Lynne

The liver produces the enzymes that break down different types of food in your stomach. If it’s not able to do this properly you get food intolerances. So try to find out which foods it may be
