What Causes Prolonged Diarrhea?
My husband has had diarreah for the last 6 months...about 6-8 times a day/ night and some pain to go along with it. He went to his doctor as soon as it started. He has had 2 cat scans that showed nothing...no one has suggested what he should do....he is waiting now for a colonoscopy and a endoscopy. It seems way too long with no suggestions to him.

Hello,
Proceed with colonoscopy and get a biopsy also. The possibilities are IBD and gastroenteritis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
