Dietary or Medical?: It's better to know the cause of your symptoms, if possible. Changes in bowel habits can be dietary, from surgery (like having your gallbladder removed), medication, inflammatory bowel disease (Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn), chronic bowel infections, or even psychological stress. Ask your doctor for suggestions of the cause - you may need testing, or a different medication.
