Suggest Medication For Diarrhea

okay in 2010 my husband fell 8ft on to a concrete floor injuring his back. at first doctors said he had misplaced disks and that he needed surgery. his insurance kept, denying the surgeries. As time went by his back got worse and worse. it went from misplaced disks to having a few ruptured disks, to having deteorating disks. as far as I know the main disks that he was having problems with were the L4 and L5 disks, its been so long that now the disks below and above that are starting to give him problems now too. he s on the list to see the doctors at ECMC Hospital in Buffalo NY (462 Grider St, Buffalo, NY 14215 (716) 898-3000) but that s only for an appointment and they say he needs a referral from his regular doctor but his regural doctor is taking her own sweet time to write the referral. to make matters worse my husband always has a bunch of stomach problems like: 1. constant diarrhea ( like practically watery) ( his poop frequently has large amounts of blood in it, like to the point where you look in the toilet and its bright red.) 2. constant gas plus he was born with something wrong with his heart I don t knoiw what but he consrtantly has chest pains hios asthma has gotten worse because hes gained a lot of weight over the years because he cant move around and exercise like he used to. so hes depressed and eats. so his blood pressure, cholesterol, and iron levels are high( the doctorsa told us that and yet they didn t put him on any medicines to lower it.) he has frequent migrains all the time. he sleeps all the time he cant sleep at night because he has restless leg syndrome( he hasn t been diagnosed with that yet, but he always tells me his legs feel like hes go9tta get up and walk around so I looked it up and that s what I came up with) so if any of yopu doctors out there think you know whats wrong with my husband or think that you can help us please help.

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to diarrhea.

I suggest using over the counter option such as Imodium.

I also recommend using daily probiotics.

I suggest to drink liquids and eat a plain diet.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
