First off TMI!

Second off be very careful about dehydration.

Hope you get over it soon. ;)

Dude, no lie. Go to your local health food store and get some jarrodopholis (I think thats how you spell it). Anyways, two years or so ago I had a similar problem and was at a loss for what to do when my Mom (who is really into natural stuff) told me to give it a try, I had tried everything else so I gave it a shot and it worked to my surprise! Just make sure to get the pill form, not the powder.

It was when I came back from Afghanistan. I'm guessing from major diet changes or something, but I just got used to it. I wasn't "sick" in any other sense other then squirts for a long time, every time.

normal diarrhea is muddy, there's a difference

5 weeks with the runs? HA! I had the shiats for one year. From Feb last year right on up to two months ago. I had an infection that the doctor gave me antibiotics for and they proceeded to killl all of the good bacteria in my stomach. Could not figure out why I was going 24/7 (try sleeping at night and wake up in a panic,no fun racing to the toilet) Had a bunch of tests done( colonoscopy ,the works ) and Colitis was the answer. They basically said I had to ride it out. May be the most miserable time of my life. Anyway, I started taking the Acidopillus pills from Walmart and I think they work great. I usually take two a day and they really keep you regulated. Definitely helped with the diharrea. Even the Gastroenterologist I saw told me to take them. Disgusting thread ends now.

Peace
