This literally came at an opportune time, as I recover from a horrible bout of d&v. I was away in an hotel, where I asked for flat cola, which I had heard could replace electrolytes. In addition I took sips of water. After 24 hours things were calmed down and I managed to eat stewed peeled unsweetened eating apples. This a remedy I picked up years ago - any good??! Now after 24 hours I feel I can cautiously eat more. I didn’t get raised heartbeat or dry mouth, but I did have headache, which a friend put down to dehydration, but I’m not sure about that? I’m 72, so I was concerned about dehydration. I didn’t know if it was food poisoning or an infection, but thanks to you, I’m thinking it was a virus.

I have another cause of diarrhea especially if you're not constipated in the first place. High quality organic extra virgin olive oil. I made my green 32oz green drink out of leafy greens sauerkraut and maybe an ¼ cup of EVOO. next morning I proceeded to completely clean out my digestive trac. didn't know if I was sick, I didn't feel sick I just felt weak. I fasted all day, started eating the next day. At the end of the day I drank my green drink with EVOO. It happened again. I am happy to know that I didn't have a bug but just wanted to warn people not to drink to 15:26 much EVOO😅

Oh my!!!! The good doctor is so helpful!!! I am so thankful he is an expert in the diarrhea and our defications. This morning I had a massive bowel movement. Brown and stunk very bad. As I was wiping I had a severe cramp in my buttock region and then had a second full bowel movement. It was lighter brown and stunk very bad and also felt extremely hot on its way out. I am extremely worried. I have never had anything like this before. Can the good doctor please help me? I did eat creamed corn yesterday. Could this be the cause? I need help! I am playing in our retirement village scrabble tournament this weekend and can’t afford any bowel issues. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

[@callyg54]

I have suffered from IBS (diarrhoea and stomach cramps) for around 7 yrs. I take 2 Loperamide, 3 times a day....even that doesn't always control it and I'll need to take extra! Eating chilly (Thai style food) seems to help rather than trigger diarrhoea. However, when I have a bout of IBS, I need to eat white bread. It makes me miserable. 😢 I cant drink coffee or tea when I'm not home as I will have a bowel movement within 40 minutes. I have needed major bowel surgery (5 yrs ago) and further surgery a couple of months ago....3 yrs over due. I do drink mostly water. In order to control when and how often I need to open my bowels, I eat once a day only.

In the end we had to call out the doctor who gave me an injection and some electrolytes to drink. I fainted twice during my bouts on the toilet. After one faint I was confused looking up at the tiles on the wall. I thought I was looking up at skyscrapers on a city street and couldn’t work out how I got there.

I saved the best for last! I remember in 1994 when working on damaged river levees. I started having a problem with Afternoon diarrhea. Then one day I didn't have that problem. What I finally figured out what I did different, was that I drank something else. We would go to the Tavern at high-noon to eat. I had been drinking Lemonade, but that day I drank a soda. So, ever since I have hardly had a drop of Lemonade. Kinda like in the 1990s when I ate some corn and it immediately made me sick. I treat it the same way! That's strange how things you like can turn against you! I heard about a fellow who ended up with an allergy to beer! face-turquoise-covering-eyes🤢

Can fasting for a day or 2 cause diarreah?

[@jamietice3126]

Does for me every time 😢 Have heard that psyllium husk before breaking your fast is helpful.

[@Wormwoodification]

Yes. Depending on how long your fast is fasting always brings on diarrhea. It can take a while however... Maybe not in a day or two typically. But week to monthly fasts do cause it... It's a known stage in long term fasting. You also get it coming off a fast. The refeeding stage often has a period of diarrhea while your body gets used to processing food again.

[@jake.e.wanabee5333]

Severe dehydration and chronic underhydration also causes chronic diarrhea, and if untreated, hospitalization, especially in the elderly who refuse to drink the required 8-10 glasses (2 - 3L) of water daily. Which, particularly in elderly women, then leads to UTI's and crazy, nasty, behavior. So, if anyone out there is struggling with an elderly parent or relative who refuses to drink adequate water 2-3L, look out for diarrhea and UTI's, because hospitalization is next.
