Hello,
(I'll be seeing my doctor in a few days)
Basically, I've had nearly continuous diarrhea for years now...why didn't I see a doctor? Didn't really bother me that much...I was just used to it.
Anyway, the symptoms I'm having are:
(sorry for the details) Diarrhea: usually dark brown, no redness, can be a paler brown or very liquidy and yellow (burns a little too). It kicks in usually after I've just eaten (within minutes or immediately (sometimes)) and has me going back to the bathroom at least 2 more times afterwards...each time it becomes more liquidy.
Blood: I've had blood twice now, each time was within a fortnight period...hasn't happened in months though. When it did happen I wasn't too upset because I assumed it was because of a hemeroid (there was stinging around the anus, the sort of pain I'd get when I'd have hemeroids (which is on occasion mostly because of all the damn wiping)).
Gas: I break wind a lot during the diarrhea, happens sometimes during the day...when it does it's usually kind of smelly (eggs).
No abdominal pain.
No constipation (well, it's rare).
A little bloating...perhaps minor bloating sometimes after dinner (but I do eat a lot :D)
No nausea or vomiting.
No tiredness.
I work out regularly (45 minutes on a treadmill).
I eat some vegetables with dinner.
I don't smoke.
I drink often.
I drink buckets of Pepsi Max (which I've just stopped doing).
Any ideas as to what this could be?
