This isn't so much a serious cancer
related problem, I just happen to be too
embarassed to go to a local doctor about
it yet. I'm hoping I can find some answers
here.
First off, I'm 18 years of age, and
probably most of my years i've had some
rather unholy bowel movements, It doesn't
often matter what I eat. I don't get
healthy bowel movements it's always
something more liquidy or just plain bad.
The last few days that's been more
frequent, and i've had the stomach pains
that usually come with those diareha like
movements and they haven't subsided, it's
like my colon isn't functioning properly
and drying down the foods. I don't know
what I'm supposed to take to help
something like this, or to stop the
problem of frequent stomach pains and bad
bowel movements over the course of my
life. So i'm hoping there will be some
advice here.
One other thing that might be useful to
know, (i'm just assuming considering this
does have to deal with consumption and
processing of food) I haven't vomitted
since about age 8 or 9, Probably about 10
years now.
Thanks, hoping for some helpful replies.

Does the pain come together with frequent
bowel movements? Do you feel need for
defecation at that moment? Does the pain
go away after the defecation? Do you have
feeling of incomplete defecation? Do you
have inflate stomach? Do you find
frequency and form of defecation changed?
Are you experiencing these symptoms from
time to time? Did you have them for a
constant period long at last three months?

When you did vomit as a child was it food
related? It sounds to me that you might
have food sensitivities. Perhaps you
should seek out a naturopath who will help
you find the foods that you need to
eliminate from your diet and work that
way. You should be experiencing firm bm's
and it doesn't sound like you are.
Have you ever considered doing an internal
cleanse? The one I am using for the past 8
years is colonix by drnatura. It is easy
to take and will help with cleaning out
the colon and helping you become regular -
however, I would also suggest you seek
advice from a naturopath about your eating
habits as that too is part of the problem.
Let us know what you've decided to do and
what is working for you.

First off, when I vomited as a child there
were only a few occasions I can remember
fairly well. Once from some pizza on a
day I was already sick I believe,
another day I was feeling crappy from the
morning on that I drank a whole bottle of
gatorade later that night.
Once when I was choking on a fishbone
while my parents argued about the
situation in front of me.
And Once directly after coming home from
mcdonalds. Some of these things did make
me paranoid after those experiences, as
vomiting is one of my worst fears now.
However I'm not allergic to pizza,
mcdonalds food(Not that I go there much)
I don't eat a lot of fish, but tuna I
will. And Gatorade I haven't touched
since that day : )
Anyway, it's been awhile since vomiting,
scary thought for me.
To explain the other bits, the pain
did/does come with frequent bowl
movements, I think it's getting better
since yesterday. And my stomach would feel
somewhat bloated and unfinished,Going to
the bathroom every 20 minutes and the
like. It was only bad just recently these
few days, and I guess that could be me
being sick or such.
However getting bad bms on a reguler basis
is still a problem even if this one clears
up. I mean if I eat anything with sugar,
sometimes even stuff without in the early
mornings (6AM) I could get stomach pains
and unpleasent bms. sometimes i'll look
back on what I ate throughout the day and
it all seems fine, healthy, or just the
same as what everyone else was eating.
Vegetables and meat, it shouldn't really
be a problem.
I guess i'm more interested in this
'cleansing' thing. I read up on something
about that once or twice, It's just kind
of an embarassing topic to think/talk
about to doctors or the people around me.
Which is why i'm using ye olde internets :

Hi!
At first you should focus on changes of
your nutrition.
I'll suggest you to avoid milk products,
drinks and medicines that contain
fructoses or sorbitol, excessive use of
caffeine and food that makes our stomach
bloated(some vegetables). Fiber diet can
be helpful too.
If you have the form and the frequency of
defecation changed together with your
stomach pain and bowel movements, you'll
probably need to visit your doctor,
because maybe your having colon irritable
syndrome.

It certainly seems that way, I was wrong
since then nothing's really changed. It's
pretty much diareha like everyday. No form
to it, and my stomach still feels bloated.
What sort of things could a doctor
prescribe for this sort of problem?

Diarrhoea is not something to just ignore.
You really should get checked out. For me
what has helped was a change in diet and
cleansing. I have been using colonix for 8
years now and it really has helped ensure
my system is clear and running smoothly.
However, I did consult with a naturopath
because although I did not see normal
allergic reactions of certain foods my
body was rebelling differently. The signs
were mood fluctuations, constipation,
diarrhoea, skin rashes, weight gain and a
long list of other symptoms. You could
still have food allergies and not know it.
The colonix program worked really well for
me and didn't require change in my
everyday life. It was gentle on my system
and helped eliminate years of build up in
my colon. For me it is a great product. I
hope you find your answers and what works
for you. Keep us up to date on your
progress.
