Default stomach problems

For the last few years I have been having stomach problems. I am wondering if there is anything I can take to relieve my stomach aches. I have tried fiber. Also, in the rare instances that I have diarrhea is there anything other than immodium ad, that i can take that isn't as bad for ones body and that can be taken more often when it last for more than a day.

I hope that you feel better but you may have to ask a Dr. about this. You could have an underlying issue that over the counter meds would just cover up.

I would definitely go to the doctor. That is a miserable problem to have and you shouldn't have to. If it is a simple case of irritable bowel syndrome there is still coping advice and a few newer drugs you could try. If it's something else, like celiac disease or something else there are drugs you could use to improve your condition, dietary changes that possibly need to be made etc.. Let us know what they say!

I know for diarrhea, plain, unsalted, unbuttered white rice- a small portion- helps.
I agree, see a doctor to make sure nothing serious is wrong.
