I am 78 years old,taking diabex500xr now 1 tablet 3 times a day also 2 Glayde tablets in the evening.
Sometimes in the morning and during the night I feel not very well also after 1st motion I very often have a very loose motion 2-3 more (Ihave my blooder removed due to cancer and had chemo and radio therapy in 2010, also have a bag) . I also have problems in controling my motion when I have to go.Can you help.
I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy a couple month ago and both are negative results, OK.

Hello;
Welocme to healthcaremagic.

Good to know you do not have cancer now because your test results done recently are normal.
Regarding problem with motion ,it is probably due to radiotherapy in pelvis.The problem is more common in older age group where sphincter that control motion is already weak. Although the problem is bothersome it is usually self limiting.
Taking lots of fibres and greens which are easy to digest can help.

Regards
