General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

I understand your concern.

Having loose stool each time you have a meal is suggestive of possible IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). However, organic issues should be ruled out first through:
- examination of stool for ova parasites
- stool mal-absorption test
- colonoscopy
- hyperacidity issues of the stomach : physical examination, upper endoscopy

Changes in your diet are also recommended including:
- have frequent small meals
- chew up slowly
- avoid eating raw nuts or any food that would induce a bowel movement
- take probiotics to stabilize intestinal flora
- take tasectan or peptobismol

After having the advised tests and examination, the final diagnosis will be determined and adequately treated.

Wish fast recovery.
