why motions occur frequently - #15081
I am a bit worried about my health lately because I've been noticing that why motions occur frequently for me. It started a few weeks ago, I thought it was just a stomach bug or something, but it’s like my body has decided that I need to go run to the bathroom every few hours! At first, I brushed it off as something I ate that didn't sit well, but then it just kept happening.. I track my meals, and my fiber intake isn’t crazy or anything. It’s not just the frequency; sometimes, it’s pretty urgent too, like I gotta go right away! Kinda embarrassing to mention this, but even if I'm at work or out with friends, that urgency hits and I have to bolt. Plus, I sometimes feel bloated and maybe an odd cramping sensation, which just adds to my confusion. I’ve tried drinking more water and chilling on spicy foods but nothing seems to be helpin’. My doc ran a few tests – nothing too major, just blood and stool samples – but I’m still waiting on those results. Why do motions occur frequently like this? Is it something to really worry about, or could it be just stress messing with my system? Anyone else been in this boat? I'm just looking for some insights while I wait!
