What in the fresh hell is this ?

Ffs. Had loose ish bowels last week but was on period. On Wednesday this week had 3 episodes of explosive diarrhoea. Last night I was up 2 times with pale sweet diarrhoea today I feel crap. Eyes and nose running. Headaches. More loose bowels its like I know I need to poo but I'm sitting there for ages until it explodes !! Wtf

It's a godsend for people with IBS. Wouldn't have a life otherwise.

Clearly you are fortunate enough to not need to know if you have Covid, so you can take your immune impaired self off to get prescribed anti-virals to potentially save your life. How nice to not understand why people still need these tests.

🤣🤣🤣 my first thought was.. shes been on the gin! Juniper berry jobby! 😆 🤣. Maybe not, hope your butt is okish and not too sair..baby wipes are your friend 🤣.

Why in earth did you post this. Gross.

I was sensing more sarcasm than encouragement

Immodium is fantastic for people who have loose stools with a non-infective cause, but it is unhelpful for people who have acute viral or bacterial illness that includes diarrhoea. So IBS or short bowel syndrome is really helped by it, but gastroenteritis, etc., no.

🤣 I get that, i always know when my period is on its due day as my arse falls out 😆 🤣

Exactly right , never prolong a stomach bug by using Imodium - body is trying to expel it for a reason

Focus on electrolyte intake while it’s ongoing

Soft arse as an insult in your current state did give my a laugh, feel better soon though

Yup, gotta love the period shits

Why did you read it? 🫠

Of course I understand why some people need to be tested, but these tests are and always have been unreliable.

If people are immunocompromised, then they should be getting tested properly at the doctors or arranged via their specialist.

Ohh im so childishly laughing at "loose stools" 🤣. Stick a cork in your arse for the night and deal with it in the morning! 🤭

Awful eh? Thought it was just me. 😮‍💨

This has got me wondering now if I had covid! I didn’t realise covid caused the shits 😱
a couple of people in my office had it recently and around the same time I had a case of the shits, lasted for about 3 weeks on and off but I didn’t feel unwell otherwise, no sniffles or headache or any other symptoms. Just sudden need to run to the toilet! It’s gone now thank god, for the most part. About 3 nights ago I did have another episode but just one and short lived thank god!

Because the title didn't indicate it was about someone's innards.

I don't think immodium (but buy the generic loperamide instead - exactly the same stuff and about a tenth of the price) is bad for you and there are times it can be useful, but generally I agree that it's best to let the diarrhoea run its course.

Have you not got any innards?
Empty shell syndrome is really quite common, have you got someone to talk to?

💩 🧌

@TinaTwinkleToes what foods have you eaten recently and any different than usual and takeaways etc ?

to help with the slops bread and potatoes help to with the liquids

Don’t get me started on the dog farts!

Why couldn’t you sit on the toilet?

Several Drs have told me immodium is a bad idea that your body is trying to remove a harm so trying to stop that is a problem
