My wife has been having stomach problems lately. About a week and a half. Brief history, 15 months ago she had gastric bypass. 12 months ago she had her gallbladder removed. With those 2 surgeries her digestive system has obviously changed. Lately though she has diarrhea after almost every meal. She went to doctor last week and was told try more fiber and come back in 2 weeks. More fiber hasn't helped. She has cut back on what she eats. Yogurt and eggs for breakfast with a protein shake seem ok. She is eating less during day and losing some weight. She has a follow up appointment in 6 days.
I guess my mind just jumps to the absolute worst scenario. She has had plenty of Dr visits and blood tests over the last 18 months so if anything serious was going on I'm assuming it would have been noticed before now. I guess there are plenty of reasons why she is having this issue. And I guess those 2 surgeries could have something to do with it.
I just don't like waiting to find out. Any opinions would be appreciated. I'm keeping myself from googling and trying to keep my mind busy on other things.
