Hello. I recently went to the doctor for stomach cramps, frequent and urgent bowl movements (10-20 a day), and diarhea (pure liquid). After a battery of tests (blood tests, c-diff, stool cultures) the doctor told me that they couldnt find anything. They gave me Ciproflaxin to take twice a day for about a week. I felt IMMENSELY better 12 hours after the first dosage, and seemed to go back to normal after the week. Stool was semi-solid at that time.
A couple weeks later, I find myself with a semi solid stool, going about 3-5 times a day. no abdominal pain (except for the feeling of having to go urgently). I have found the stool to be of the correct color (mid brown, not too light or dark), fairly solid with a little liquid. I did notice one very small stool that there seemed to be a murky white substance surrounding it (almost looking like saliva). I am drinking only storebought drinking water that is prepackaged in a gallon, much like the kind a milk delivery company would distribute (By the way, I am in the United States) I do not eat difficult foods, for example: the most difficult food i eat is a turkey sandwich on rye (and only 3 slices of thin turkey!).
I have been to the gastro doctor before in the past couple of years and was even scoped. Absolutely nothing was found, not even a polyp.
Ive got an appointment with a gastro next week, but i dont want to go through this for ANOTHER week! Please Help
