More testing: If this continues you need to have a colonoscopy. You may have irritable bowel syndrome.. But there are other causes of diarrhea including inflammatory bowel disease , infectious colitis to name a few.

Try increasing: Your fiber intake and reducing the intake of stimulants like caffeine. Also, cut out dairy if you have any degree of lactose intolorance. See if that helps.

Plz Help. I feel stool blockage and gas after meal. Stool even soft but hard to evacuate. Surprisingly at every morning time stool came out. No blood seen. One group of doctors on IBS. Other goes for colonoscopy. What is your advise?
Every morning, I have a normal bowel movement. Mildly soft to firm. Then right after maybe 10-30 minutes, I have an urge to go and it is soft stool that is shaped. Is this IBS? Doc thinks I might have it. (Had every test under the sun, all normal).
