Question

[Dawnolson 85]

My doc says no and is supposed to be sending me a list of Fiber foods that bind. Hope that works...

Can't you take kopectate? I'd be begging by now! Poor girl!!

I would give anything to be constipated: (

For the last six weeks I have had diarrhea every day 6-10 times per day. It hurts. It always feels like I've been punched in the stomach. It always takes 30_45 mins to go. My job is getting mad at me because I'm away from my desk so much and getting behind on my work because of it. They are threatening to fire me.

I wish I could trade with u and give u a break for a bit. 7 weeks out and nothing really seems to make me go. Have u had bowel issues like ibs before? Stay hydrated cause I'm sure that's very taxing on your system.

Oh no! That's terrible! Six weeks! An they are only going to send you fiber info to bind?? That seems like a long time to have that with pain' date=' maybe you need a second opinion?? Hope it gets better. What about cheese? That always plugs me up! As far as your work, can you get a medical excuse and that way they can't take action due to laws against termination stemmed from illness??? Praying everything works out for you![/quote']

I'm going to see my pcp tomorrow about depression and to see what he says about the constant diarrhea. I think maybe it's ibs? I don't know. I want to try to maybe apply for fmla but my doctor has to confirm I'm suffering from a debilitating issue, which from talking with his office, they have no intention on saying that. That is why I'm going to see my pcp. I have a lot of minor medical issues I have never really complained of so I feel I deserve to complain about this one. I have a very very fast paced demanding job all while living with osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, high heartrate, low blood pressure, depression, anxiety attacks, paranoia, hypoglycemia, prediabetic, acid reflux, eczema, ocd, and dead nerves on my left side. I can't feel my left leg and some fingers on my left hand. Just add ibs to the list. I have never tried to miss work for all my aches and pains but this is my last straw sitting on the toilet half the day. I know many others are worse off than me. I just don't want to lose my job...

I've noticed that quite a bit of you all are able to eat chili or salsa' date=' did it not irritate your stomach? My dr had said not to eat chili or things like that because it could cause irritation, I love chili and salsa and miss it[/quote']

Wendy's chili has been my saving grace... I buy one and it lasts about six meals... it doesn't irritate my stomach at all... I've also added salsa to an egg with no problems

Yum! I need to try the Wendy's chili, I've been putting drops here and there of salsa and so far it's been sitting well
