Loose stool for 5 years

Loose stool for 5 years

My husband has had very loose stools for five years or more.  He has had all the stool sample testing, colonoscopy.  Everything was fine.  That was two years ago.  He is at very high risk of colon cancer.  He continues to have very loose stools, would anyone consider seeing another MD even though all previous testing was normal?

When they did the colonoscopy did they find any polyps?  Loose bowels are one of the signs of chrons or uc.  If the dr. just dismissed why he is having loose bowels as for more testing or see another dr. for them.

Especially if the bowels have a really bad odor.  Sometimes you just have to tell the dr to find out what is wrong that you cannot live this way.

good luck and let us know how it goes
