Suggest Treatment For Loose Bowels

I have a rumbling tummy, and my bowels are loose first thing in the morning and late at night. I have chronic stomach pains as well. I am 52 yrs and 5ft 2inches tall, there is no family history of chrons disease. I have tried avoiding dairy products, wheat products. Am taking probiotic acidophilus with pectin from the health shop, nothing seems to be working. Am trying decaf products and soya milk to see if this will help, nothing so far. Can you give me any suggestions, I have been to the doctors in the first instance for a sample test, came back with no bacteria or infection. Many thanks, Gill

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is more likely.
Most common cause for IBS is stress and anxiety.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
Probiotic drug like sporolac is also beneficial.
Librax (chlordiazepoxide) is also good for IBS.
So don't worry, follow these and your symptoms will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
