Up until Wednesday morning I was having regular bowel movements. Thursday morning I woke up and had to run to the washroom. It was liquid TMI. I took imodium 4 times on Thursday and messaged my surgeons office. They told me to monitor it and if no blood was present to stick to a bland diet.

I slept fine last night but woke up this morning to the same problem and it has continued all day. Five imodiums now and I just had a slice of toast and it instantly went through me. I noticed a rumbling as I was eating. The odor is terrible!!!

I messaged my surgeon again now. Not sure what to do. But, I am concerned. Anyone have any similar issues?

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

What type of surgery did you have? Do you think you may have developed a lactose intolerance/

I wish is was lactose intolerance but, I haven't had any dairy in days. Not sure whats going on.

is it still going on? I guess it could just be a bug, too. Or maybe some food-borne thing?

Still going. I went for bloodwork at 11 for my follow up appointment Wednesday. I will probably head to ER if it hasnt stopped by tomorrow.

Any updates? Are you adding any artificial sweetener flavor to your water? I've had those suddenly make me have liquid diarrhea out of the blue. Imodium does help tho. This is odd. Let us know how you're doing!

I went to see my faimily doctor Tuesday. He ordered a stool test it has come back negative for common things like salmonella and a list of others. Ova and parasites haven't come back.
My doctors want me to test for covid if everything comes back negative. I am still sick down 15 pounds since last week hardly eating. Still running to the washroom.
I am thinking its sibo I have looked it up online. Not sure what to do next but I am not willing to put up with this much longer. Thanks for checking up on me. Hope you are doing well. I will keep you updated.
