Guest guest Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Aw, come on-is it a poop thing? (<Big Grin>). Green, white...you name it I've covered the color spectrum... One treatable cause they found for my runs was small bowel bacterial overgrowth. Has something to do with bile salts and other stuff I don't quite understand but anyways there is a nifty new drug for it called Xifixan, which is also used for travelers' diarrhea and does not have the awful side effects of the previous drug of choice, Flagyl http://www.salix.com/products/products_xifaxan.asp Excuse the drug ad, but I so hated the flagyl!This new stuff is loads better. Has your doc talked to you about MCT oil to get some weight on. Man that stuff tastes weird. I did that and Megace. Liquid. Yetch. Why can't they make a liquid medication that does not taste like gum thats been stuck to the bottom of a desk for forty years? Margaret .....cause what I have to say is too > disgusting to tell the whole group. I can't gain any weight, but the > MRI showed only mild pancreatitis.
