I have been taking turmeric root extract for Rheumatoid Arthritis for about 6 weeks as an alternative to methotrexate after my liver function tests went high. I do have gall stones, though. I am experiencing griping pains, particularly in the mornings after I wake up, which results in passing watery, explosive poo. I have recently returned from a cruise, so concerned that I may have picked up something there. I also take medication for underactive thyroid, high blood pressure and cholesterol. Can you advise?
