Suggest Medication For Diarrhea
First of all I take several medicines. For the last year it seems when I eat in about 30 minutes it hits a note and I have to got to the bathroom and I better in close because it is like I have diahrrhea. Now, I have told my doctor several times and he has me taking diphenoxylate2.5 mg only as needed but by then it is to late. I have A FIB and in January had an ablation and so far it has worked but I take lovaza, lisinopril, forosemide, and eliquis. I was told to eat breakfast before taking these in the morning. I do. I have to take eliquis again at night. Now, I have pooped in the pan and taken it back to hospital and all was negative that was checked which I don t know what was checked and what wasn t. That is it.

Hello,
1) Urgency for stool + semi-solid consistency stool + abdominal heaviness after taking food - are indicative of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)
2) This is physiologic condition, difficult to detect on any radiology evaluation.
3) This condition occur due to either lack of intestinal digestive enzymes or due to allergy to particular food.
4) Treatment consist of medications for pain and medications consist of intestinal digestive enzyme supplements.
5) Also, you need to check for allergy to particular food in case you have symptoms after ingestion of that food.
