A member asked:
I have been suffering from diarrhoea for 3 weeks and am going to see docs, loperamide works before returning. does this point to spasms or parasites?

Chronic Diarrhea: With diarrhea that has lasted this long, you need to be evaluated. There are several infectious and non-infectious causes. Get a referral to a gastroenterologist and have your stool tested for O&P, get a full history & exam. Stay hydrated/wash hands. <a href="http://www.cdc.gov/healthywater/hygiene/disease/chronic_diarrhea.html
