A member asked:
What do i do if i've had diarrhea almost every day for 2 years unless i take anti diarrheal pills it started after i had appendicitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IBS or infection: Chronic diarrhea for 2 years should be evaluated by your physician. A stool culture for abnormal bacteria and for eggs and parasites is standard. If these are negative for pathogens, then an irritable bowel syndrome is likely. Your physician will advise you about diagnosis and treatment.
