Doctors’ responses

With IBS, or irritable bowel syndrome, despite normal test results like yours, the symptoms you’re experiencing – like loose stools and frequent bowel movements – can be prevalent. Managing IBS often necessitates lifestyle and dietary adjustments. Begin by identifying and avoiding food triggers; common ones might include dairy, gluten, caffeine, spicy foods, and high-fat items. Consider using a food diary to track your intake and symptoms to identify these triggering patterns. Additionally, stress management through relaxation strategies or cognitive-behavioral therapy can be quite beneficial, as stress often exacerbates IBS symptoms. Incorporating soluble fibers like psyllium husk may help regulate stool consistency, but introduce these gradually to prevent bloating. Probiotics can also be helpful for some in balancing gut flora but remember it varies by person. If weight loss continues, it’s critical to ensure nutritional intake aligns with your daily needs. Smaller, more frequent meals might be advantageous over larger ones. It’s also essential to hydrate appropriately, especially with frequent loose stools, as dehydration can become a concern. Regular physical activity usually aids digestion and can alleviate stress. Lastly, ensure you re-consult your healthcare provider periodically to ensure all aspects of your condition are well-managed. It’s key to seek medical attention if you notice additional symptoms like blood in stool, severe abdominal pain, or unexpected changes in bowel habits that deviate from your established pattern, as these might require urgent medical evaluation.
