You also might want to add oatmeal to your diet. It sounds silly that fiber can help diarrhea... but it works and oatmeal is a very good source. Bananas are another one.. easily digested.

Another suggestion is a probiotic. All probiotic pills are not the same.. some work for some and some not. Only the more expensive Align works for me .. sigh, the way my luck goes. Probiotic foods... Yogurt with live culture will help.. such as Activia. Kefir helps some people.. which I have never tried because my stomach doesn't like milk.

Last suggestion is keep a food diary. Notate what you ate and if it seems to contribute to the diarrhea or help alleviate it. Did you have frequent bowel movements? What was the consistency.. soft blob, mushy, liquid, etc? You may want to see a food allergist to rule out an allergy.

I actually do eat oatmeal. I also take a probiotic and drink kefir every day. Some days I also have Activia yogurt. I really have been trying on my own different things I have read about. So I really am hoping I get a doctor at Mayo in 2 weeks that will listen and care and not like the doctor here treats me.
