Constant diarrhea, weakness, exhaustion.

Like other posts, I, too have been where you are! I had constant diarrhea every time I put something in my mouth. It got so bad that after over 2 months, I was unable to eat, then drink liquids! I was so weak that I could hardly make it to the bathroom. That's when my husband took me to the hospital. I had lost 30 pounds. I was on IV fluids for 2 days, then my GI Dr did an EGD and colonoscopy., where they found autoimmune microscopic colitis. Also my esophagus had ulcerations all the way to my stomach!I'm on Budesomide and a Rx med for diarrhea because the over the counter Imodium stopped working! I am
able to eat a healthy diet now and only have occasional loose stools. My GI said as I continue to heal, it should get better. It's been 6 weeks since my tests and I almost feel like my old self. Maybe you should get a 2nd opinion. My heart goes out to you. You don't have to suffer!!

Can you tell me what RX medication you are on for diarrhea. I have IBS-D , and prescribed loperamide isn't working. It works for a couple of days, then the diarrhea comes right back. It also causes a lot of bloating. Thank you. Glad you are feeling better.
