Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Diarrhea Immediately After Eating. Normal Endoscopy And Colonoscopy. Taking Medication, No Improvement. Advice?
How can I have diarrhea right after I have eaten? It usually takes hours for the food to be digesteaving diarrd. What do you suggest for having diarrhea on a daily basis unless I go on a diet of mostly starches? My doctor has given me a number of prescriptions, but none of them have taken care of the problem. I have had 2 colonoscopies and 2 endoscopys.(my spelling is wrong I know!) All was negative.
It looks like IBS, Irritable Bowel Syndrome. It is your strong gastro-colic reflex that makes you to go to the toilet immediately after eating. This isn't an abnormal thing, unless proved otherwise. Quite common in many people.
You have to train your bowels, not to go in toilet each time you feel like after eating but, go at fixed time in a day, say once in morning & once in the night. Most common cause for IBS is, stress. Do Yoga, Meditation & regular exercise.
Take high fiber diet, green leafy vegetables, drink plenty of water. Wish you a healthy life. Take care. Regards. -Dr. Mandar
Hi, it appears that you have a stress diarrhea, due to tensions in the life, or hiatus hernia, etc. I advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment. I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe neurotropic injections for 5 consecutive days. Ranitidine, ofloxacin and ornidazole. Thank you.
