[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 1075536, member: 17713"] Please go to GP and ask for a referral to a gastroenterologist. I've had bowel problems (opposite to you) and some tests are not nice but are necessary.... I paid to see my gastro chap privately as my probs kept landing me in A&Eand I couldn't wait 18 weeks on the waiting list. It cost £160. The consultant was fantastic and I spokenwith him and was examined up the bum for an hour before he then put me back on the NHS list to have the full tests done. I had them done within 6 weeks. This gastro chap did tell me he was seeing a lot more diabetics in his clinics..but he didn't blame diabetes for bowel problems of diabetics but the foods that people eat nowadays..... Some diarrheoa tablets should NOT be taken long term and the same applies to laxatives. If your stomach or bowel is causing you to stay in and you seem to have lost sensation possibly in your anal passage then this needs attention... I was also advised recently that ibupofren should not be taken daily without a tablet to protect your stomach such as omeprazole.... They are anti inflammatories and aren't really likely to help a loose bowel to tighten up if there are problems inside. Ibupfren should also be tsken with food so please be careful when using them.
