Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of having Gastro type problems as you have to go for 4 times per day, stools vary from slightly formed stools to almost urine like and very sticky in its nature, otherwise fine, eating a banana a day - similar history in past.
This looks to be colitis problem wherein you get inflammation of the large bowel.
I would advise you the following:
Get the stool test done.
Take a course of an antibiotic, metronidazole, probiotics, activated charcoal and antispasmodic.
Wait for 5 days.
Stop taking banana and any foods and beverages that can instigate such a problem.
If the problem is not solved then you may need further investigations like colonoscopy, CT scan and tests of blood.
This will give further diagnosis and a plan for management.
Take fresh home-made food and boiled and cooled water only.
