I am becoming increasingly concerned about this persistent diarrhoea, which I have suffered now for four or five days. I was up again this morning at 4:30am, then again at 8:00am and 1:00pm. The loperamide is having no affect even taking six capsules a day (the maximum). I have bananas and apples now provided by my neighbour and that's all I have eaten today so far. I am too exhausted to eat much anyway, particularly with constant gut discomfort.
I have kept a complete log of how many times I have 'been' and when and a record of my intake of the medication. I shall email this to my GP on Monday. She asked me to let her know if the loperamide had 'done the trick'. My record speaks for itself.
1:40pm - had to stop typing this and rush upstairs again. Don't think I will eat anything else today.
