A member asked:
Is it normal to have diarrhea after every meal especially in the morning for about 8 months?

Not normal, but comm: It is quite common these days because this is a frequent symptom of irritable bowel symdrome, which seemingly is on the rise, more often females than males. Also, if you have bloating/flatulence, cramping, early satiety, indigestions etc..Then more likely so. Chronic giardiasis may do same, but often foul smelling. Celiac may also be the cause. Consult your doc for eval/treatment...Good luck.

No: Diarrhea after every meal is not normal. Go to your doctor and get checked out. If you have blood in your stool or mucous, then it is more concerning, or if you have been losing weight. Start by taking a good probiotic and eating a diet high in fiber and see your doc!
