Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea
Hi, I am 27, 175 LBS, 5'9" , having diarrhea on and off for about a month, no stomach pain or blood in stool, feel normal. I have been taking atenolol(25mg), lisinopril and hydrothoroclyicide(12.5mg). I had my blood checked about 3 months ago, doctor said everything is fine at that time. Also sometimes I wake up sweating. My diet is pretty good. Any ideas on what it could be?

Hello,
you need further evaluation by a physician. to be 27 years old on 3 anti hypertensive medications makes me concerned you have reason for hypertension outside of "normal essential hypertension" which is typically related to age and cholesterol. You should have blood work which evaluates your thyroid, pituitary gland and adrenal gland. specifically looking for pheochromocytoma. Please seek medical attention.
