Reaction After Eating Anything!

[crapmemory]

No matter what I eat whether it's a big meal or a biscuit, within an hour I need to go to the loo. Any ideas what can be causing this as it's really getting me down.TIA

An imbalance in your intestinal flora, perhaps.

Try taking a prebiotic yoghurt daily for 2 weeks.

Probiotic

In my opinion.....this is perfectly normal.

As an outside bet, one needs to consider IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)................a rank outsider.

loose stool is on the list of go to your GP symptoms... probably something simple but always better to be safe rather than sorry

We had a big tv campaign recently Sqad where the gist was any one of the following loose poo that goes on more than a few days , more frequent poo and blood in poo a GP should get a visit.

rowan........onset of blood or persistent diarrhoea I agree....should be investigated.......campaign or no campaign.

If one reads the OP's history, the bowel alteration ( I presume it is diarrhoea) is directly associated with eating.....a gastrocolic reflex...like babies have.

Just my opinion.

I have similar issues but seem to have quite a fast bowel transit time including when I had a pill cam scan though I have bile acid malabsorption so I think when I eat something it just prompts my system to flush out with lots of water - it's very obviously watery though. I can only be part way through eating and I need to go.

Some antibiotics seem to have a similar effect, even had some blood with the current lot.

Any significant change in bowel habits should be checked out as others have said.

I'm waiting to see my GP. Very rarely diarrhoea, just quite normal really. I try not to eat while I'm at work.
