    Goddamn, your toilet must look like a jackson pollock painting.

    That definitely sounds similar to celiac or chron’s. Hopefully that’s all that’s going on.

    Also 12 times a day has got to be ridiculous.

      Luckily I can reasonably control it to where I have never once been in danger of shitting myself, so thats good. But yeah, the toilet looks pretty gnarly.

      spoiler

      Sometimes it's even just entirely liquid.

      But also, yeah, there is ZERO pain or discomfort, so thankfully having to go to the bathroom so often is really the only frustrating thing. Also, I'm almost 32, and this has only really been going on for a year or so, so like....idk, I'd much rather it be celiacs or something than prostate cancer. Not that any of those sound fun or anything.

        I ran into similar problems with constant liquid stool. Doctor performed blood work, whoch was ineed expensive (like 100 woth insurqnce) , turns out I likely have IBS.

        One thing, though, I literally never shat 12 times a day. Try cutting out Wheat, and then dairy, see if that changes anything. If not you might likely have have either chrona or Celiac’s,

              Oh, I'm definitely aware of your bottom point. As far as being lactose intolerant, my only pause with considering that is that my partner and I don't consume dairy, unless oat/nut milks count. And even then, I'm only aware of consuming dairy like that when I have a bowl of cereal (which I just had a few hours ago, and have not pooped since).

              Either way, I just need to get the fucking tests done to know for sure, the health industry is just a fuck. My plan is to seriously start seeing the doctor about this come mid-January when my finances will look better.
