Hi there, i feel a bit embarassed. I felt just now that i had Diaherra. I went to toilet and it all came out. Dont know if normal to have it? Dont know what it could of been but i had this takeaway earlier from a chicken place down town. I felt sick etc.
What do u think it could of been? Ive had this problem before. I dont know what to do. Please help? Please? It was horrible takeway and not nice. It was cheap cuts and wasnt nice. I needed eat etc. Have u had it? Or?
Diarrhoea is not uncommon. You might have food poisoning or you might have simply picked up a stomach bug, as they are around more at this time of year.
Make sure you stay well hydrated and practice good hand hygiene, as ever, after visiting the toilet. Get plenty of rest and if it persists longer than a couple of days, ring your GP for advice.
I have bouts quite often and have so far not really had an issue. If it's the food then it should go within 24-48 hours of the food going into your system. As advised above, keep hydrated, if you can and feel the need to take over the counter diarrhoea medication and if it carries on, go to see your doctor or GP. You can also speak to a pharmacist as to what may be causing it/what might help.
♥It's the ups and downs of living life this way. Promise me you'll never go away. Just stay with me through one more night because it's always darkest before the light and now I promise you I'll never turn away. I won't let you give us one less heart to break...♥
Thank You for both of ur advice. I will look into it if anything.I dont know why i have a bad stomach but it must of been something Ive been eatten. What about u? Did u say u have it? Yh
If it's food it doesn't necessarily go within 24-48hrs, in fact food poisoning can take that long to show, even longer, and can sometimes last up to a week or more.
It is 'normal' to get diarrhoea every now and again and may not be related to anything you've eaten. Usually it will go by itself often within hours but usually 3days. The best things to do are keep well hydrated and take anti-diarrhoeal tablets, usually Loperamide (eg Immodium) as directed on the packet, so long as there are no reasons in the leaflet not to take them. The best way to keep hydrated is by drinking lucozade SPORT/ powerade/ Gatorade/ similar isotonic sports drinks or going and buying some rehydration sachets such as Diorralyte and mixing them with waterpark as directed.
Having diarrhoea every now and again is not the end of the world but if it becomes serious or lasts longer than a few days then it's best that you get checked out by a doctor.
Thank you for ur reply. I've got a few things on my mind already and this happening is just another thing again. I don't wanna have it and don't think anyone would want it but it must of been something I've eatten to got this bad. I was alright yesterday and ok today but had slight diaherra again today so I'm not sure if what I had from that chicken shop takeaway made it like this?
Everytime I've been using the toilet I've had to say to my mum sorry but I think I'm gonna be a while and she don't mind but it's using all the toilet roll and having to buy it baco. Luckily it's never happened when I've been out but usually happens when I come back in or I'm in the house. Yh I'm glad that u think it's normal, no one said it is. It is normal to have it and we all go so i dont see why people one of my friends dont wanna hear it. I found that à bit rude cuz Shes never been like that to me.
I cant be bothered to argue or upset anyone anymore. Ive already done that as u can see from my récent thread on here but if i have it again then i will need to get some immodium plus as someone did say to me to buy that and drink water but u said energy drink? If i dont havé any i will have to buy from shop. Ive stopped talking m'y anti deppressents recently and that use to make me go but Ive been meaning to ordee some more but Im not gonna tell m'y mum cuz it will be another argument.
I will do next time or now and see what happen's. Im never having that takeaway again always. seems to be in thé toilet for a long time. M'y mum Saïd to stay there and go. There was nothing else i could do.
Did the stomach troubles start when you stopped taking your meds? I wonder if it may be a side effect of the withdrawal as I know with some drugs they can cause issues with the digestive system.
Haven't you drink orange Juice or water that helps prevent from your bad stomach & diaherra but it will takes you a couple of days to clear it out. Oh, another thing is that you have eat lots of fruits to keep it down. Rest & keep hydrated at all times.
I had that a long time but it's turned out that I had a flu bug stomach which never happened before. I always take orange juice, banana & yogurt for. Y little snacks.
Yh i had that flu before two. Yh i think it could of been food poisoning. I dont uaually get ill thats thé problem. Thé surprising thing about it is i wasnt sick but can u still have good poisoning without being sick?
I thought thé food that i brought it from was nice untill i started to feel sick and ended up needing to use toilet and thats when it all came out. I was in there about an hour i think. It was that bad. My mum said for me to stay in there and wait till it clears.
Ive not had to take any think for that yet but i think my system has gone back to normal. I feel better today but i still go everyday.
Thank You for ur reply and yes i will try that next time :)
I think your mother is wrong, because she pressure you to stay in there & wait until it's clear. Don't do anything rash if I were you. Your systems needs movement bowels to keep moving things around while you can do exercise like walking or jogging.
Don't wait until next time because you needs to drink some liquids in your systems & diaherra. It's good to some stuffs come out soon & make sure you really had to go in then & don't wait to stay that long because it might take a while to get used to it. Oh, don't push too hard on yourself & just go easy on that.
Before that, I wasn't sick then until it's start to clears up in a few days. Food postiobing is never good to your body because a couple of places to puts the wrong leftovers since that you got sick already.
Yh but i would of done the same. I cant really do anything if i need to go. I know what u mean to move around though i had to stay in there untill i felt better.
Yh ur right about there. I should only use thé toilet if i really need it cuz its pushing myself to o hard otherwise and u cant do that. Thats true and i will do that next time. I dont wanna buy liquids or tablets if its gonna be a waste. I should buy it just to be on the safe side but will end up buying it when Im fine now.
You dont have to be sick to have food poisoning? I always think u do? I didnt feel right after but i wasnt sick. I wasnt sure what it was. I know it was diaherra but where from
Im glad someone has been through it. I know u understand cuz u know what its like. Not good is it?
Yeah, drink as much fluids as possible. That's like the #1 rule of the digestive system. Of course, don't go entirely overboard (like literally a boatload of water). Water is your best friend, whether or not it makes sense.
Take ibuprofen? I think ibuprofen might help in this situation (of course, there's always the possibility of it not, so do double check on that).
But yeah, it's probably whatever you ate. You said it was low-quality, which suggested that whatever you ate might even have been undercooked, or improperly handled. Either of those will likely lead to some sort of food poisoning.
If it persists for an ungodly long time (like 2 months), you might want to get it checked out and make sure you don't have something like Crohn's disease. Otherwise, it's probably just food poisoning.
No I only said it's horrible cuz it was when I went through it. I'm ok now but I will next time get what u suggested from the pharmacy. Thanks.
That's true Concrete. I think water is really good and can help u for whatever problem u got if its a head ache u got or a bad stomach. You can get water from anywhere and will try it as that sounds good. I have taken that before and has helped. Proberly better then paractemal but it depends I think.
Yh it was. I know it's not happened before and got to take something to be that bad. I was fine before then after I ate it I wasn't well and thought it's got to be that as it wasn't anything else what would make me feel that bad. Won't have it again. It was from a chicken takeaway and had it before and was on but as u said it was how it was handled or cooked etc. Not good.
Yh I'm ok now. I would see how it goes and will get the products next time if it happens again. I won't have it again though. No its fine now. It was horrible before and wasnt good on my system.

Did you mean Imodium? Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory which wouldn't really help.
