A member asked:

Last wk was constipated. got a bit better. tdy@7am woke up w harp pains in intestind area and stool was not watery but loose. it is better now???????

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds better: Sounds like constipation is resolving. If you alternate between constipation and loose stools, you probably have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Do an internet search and you'll find lots of info.
