jimhans48, Could it be a spastic colon? Have you tried peppermint tea yet? Google it -- it calms the gut muscles and could cut back on those spasms (Heather's Tummy Tamers has a great tea). As for the "true" source of the spasms, it could be stress, specific foods/quantities, or a mix of the two.

It started with stage 1 cancer in my rectum. About 90% of the rectum was removed and that started the excessive bowel movements. Mon of this week, Dec 30 or 31, I had twenty bowel movements between 3 am and 11 pm.

Hi researchmaven
I have not tried tea yet, but may give it a try,
