Bowels again

[IBSsufferer_26]

Openend my bowels 10x the other day. I'm definitely assuming it was something I ate. Went to the Dr and told him that opening your bowels 10x a day isn't normal, he said it can be. I mean what the hell. I continue to open my bowels between 4x and 5x a day.

Hey, I'm with you on this one! I average 4-5 times a day too! And I tell you sometimes they are not little poos either!!! I range from normal to diarreah, usually gets more like diarreah As the times go on!! it totally gets me down, I don't know how they can say this is normal! I have no answers for you, just letting you know we're hear for you! Xx

Hello your not alone!! I get the exact same when having flare up and about 4-5 on a normal day especially if I’m anxious about something. Unfortunately it’s just ibs for you, loperamide helps me a lot I never used to leave the house until I started taking these. Try not to worry too much about how much you go x

You know we should all try and meet up for moral support. You know support one another through these turbulent times.

I was prescribed a drug called "Welchol" for my chronic diarrhea...Stop it in it's tracks!! It's very expensive, though, so my doctor has now switched me to a drug called "colestipol." I'm hoping it works the same way! Might want to give colestipol a try, IBSsufferer_26.

Thank you. I don't really suffer with Diarrheah. I mean that day I opened my bowels 10x some of it was, but I don't really suffer with that.

I'm starting to suffer with constipation lately.
