I ve had diarrhea for almost 3 weeks, for the past 3 days its been very watery, I do have stomach pain usually before a bowel movement, which is explosive. I turned in specimens to my doctor this morning and hope to know something by Friday (usually I have a bowel movement soon after I eat, even bland food). Right now my biggest question is that my very good friend is in the hospital with double pneumonia and other breathing difficulties, should I only visit her by phone until she get better or until I get on some sort of medicine to take care of this problem.
