To me diarrhea is a mostly liquid discharge. I don't have that .What I do have is excessive bowel movements, up to twenty or more a day. These have been since the reversal of my ostomy bag that I wore for about two months after colorectal cancer surgery on May 31 of 2024. Most if not all of my rectum was removed since that is where the cancer was.
My output is soft solid waste. I keep track of the number of bowel movements since I started have WAY two many. six to eight a day is normal, but my high so far is thirty. That was about three weeks ago, from 3 AM until 11 PM that night, about 20 hours. Currently I've had 19 yesterday, Wed Feb 12 and another 26 so far today (it's currently about 9:30 PM), Thursday Feb. 13. I have doubled up tonight on my immodium anti-diarrheal Hoping it doesn't cause unforseen problems. I have had enough of this nonsense and realize there are NO support groups for this! I feel like I'm the only one in Denver Co. so affected, and probably am.

Best of luck to you,
JIM in Denver
