Bowel Movements Posted: 09-17-03 20:33pm


I have probably 4 bowel movements a day. Basically I have one after every time I eat. I eat fairly well too. Is this normal?

No, that's not normal....Go see a gastroinolgist doctor....Ask for a colonosopy, it sounds like you have colitis or something like that, but check it out with your doctor...There is medication for this if that's what you have.....Diet helps too ...................Good luck and take care, susan

I agree with feelgood. I did the same thing and there was something wrong. I highly suggest you see a doctor! Hugs, ladybrannon

Well, I agree with both..But I was just wondering, is it a normal bowel movement or it is something to do with habit.. Because I know someone who does the same..And although its not a bowel movement, he could sit in the toilet for and hour or so after meals. After meals outside, he will definately need to head home to head to the loo.. I might be wrong though..
