Frothy, yellow diareah.. need some advice

[SIPSGrammy 27]

I had my surgery 3 years ago come this June. Look and feel great in my size 9/10 jeans and medium tops! However, these past 3 days I have been having severe diareah, frothy and yellow in color. Upper part of my abdomen has been feeling gasy and full. I have been trying to drinking more fluids, and cut out any carbs, eating only Protein and veggies. Taking my Vitamins. No fever or feeling ill, but fear something is wrong.

Has any other veterans had this issue?

This is the sort of thing you should see your doctor about, especially if it has lasted three days. Foamyness is generally caused by excess fat or mucus in your stool, but this may be a symptom of a larger issue. Since you've cut out carbs though it probably means that it's not a gluten sensitivity.

And hopefully you didn't pick up C. Diff in the hospital, once you get that it's difficult,to,control or get over.[emoji20]

@SIPSGzrammy did you see your doctor And how are you doing now? Sounds pretty scary that close to surgery?😱

I’m starting TPN because of diarrhea related issues. It can get out of control fast. I would at least give your dr. a call. I’m 3 yrs post op too. Was loving life. Now I’m bed ridden. If you are concerned it’s not something to let go quietly. You are in control of your health.
