Yes I had them a couple of weeks ago they lasted for about 4 days. I spoke to my friend who is a pharmacist he recommended peppermint oil capsules they did the trick. Xx

Could be a sign of several things. Please go see your GP and get some stool samples sent off

I have this often it's not anything to be alarmed about the joys of Ibs d is the d unfortunately. It's usually linked to eating something u shouldn't or in my case stress. I have had it a week now but I know it will settle down it always does

Sorry to be graphic but the colour of poo depends on what you eat as well as consistency and solidity. IF your poo is pale yellow chalky looking and floats you probably have Celiac which is an severe reaction to gluten..see your doctor soon...at worst it can be terrible and need blood transfusions at best a new diet and feeling well! Whatever it is.....if the colour persists over the next few days see a DR anyway. You could have a problem with absorbing iron and nutrients.
