yellow stuff?

well i woke up in the middle of the night with excrutiating stomach cramps and really bad nausea and ended up sitting on the toilet for abut an hour in tears cos i felt so ill, had really bad diahorrea, but then, and this is the bit im asking about really, i looked like it was just bile coming out, like it was just yellow clearish liquid, and this doesnt seem normal :s-smilie: just been again and the same thing happened - is this ok or do you think there is something more wrong with me?

like you said, diahorrea. your poo won't come out solid,it comes out watery and possibly yellowish/slightly greenish. see a doc,take in more fluids to replace what you've lost. no milk/butter/eggs,just have some bread and lots of water...have i said see a doc.or at least call them and ask them for some advice :smile: hope you feel better soon,having the runs is just so crap :hugs:

Now you have emptied your bowel of it's contents you are left with just fluid and bile. Quite normal.

Meh, i wouldn't bother seeing a doctor, just drink loads of fluids and if it gets any worse or lasts a week or so go and see the quack...

If i had diarhorrea then the last thing i would want to do is go outside of the house...away from the toilet! I would wait for a while, see if it clears up by itself and then if not within a week then go to a doctor.

Yeah i would say if it does continue for a while then i would consider going to your GP.

Sometimes happens to me after say a 2 or 3 day binge. The technical term I use for it is: "My liver is trying to climb out of my arse and run away!". Been drinking to excess lately? If so, then this is the cause.

Haha, good pun!

Seriously though, if it continues for a couple more days then I would see the doc.

If you force yourself to eat a whole tin of corned beef whilst looking at pictures of rotten corpses - you can actually completely disable your entire sense of disgust!

Don't ask how I figured that one out.

Go to Boots and get some immodium and some rehydration sachets :smile: or ask somebody to do it for you might be a better idea! Hope you get better soon

Just eat loads of yogurt and also drink plenty of coke.

Reply 14

yoghurt isn't good.the bacteria would just it worse...plus it's got milk in it...not good.
i'm going to assume this...i might not be right

dont use immodium because it'll keep the bacteria (or whatever) in your system for longer, and the point of the diarrhoea is to flush your system out. eat white bread and pasta, and drink water with a little bit of salt in it, or get some rehydration sachets

Get well soon. You don't need to worry with bile. It's basically if you turn yellow yourself you should really start worrying. I know what it like due to a liver problem since birth -x- I hope your okay now. Like others said, if not resolved go to the hospital next week.
