watery stool

by Dan__0, Jan 12, 1999 12:00AM

  hi,
  my problem is that I have had a watery stool almost everyday
  for half a year. the stool is really soft and watery, sometims
  with gas. my urine is always yellowrish.
  my condition is that I'm a hbv carrier, maybe have hsv, not sure
  'cus never took the lab test for that, just based on the symptoms.
  right arm and leg are always tired. I don't know if I have muscle
  weakness. dizzy all the time.
  lab test showed everything ok. BUN test highter than normal but
  second test returned to normal.
  before that I was a totally heathy person besides hbv.
  I just wondered if this is nerve related. what tests should I
  ask from my doc? any suggestions?
