Well I have been haveing diarrhea for two weeks now and before that It stopped for a day after I took imodium but before that I had it for two weeks as well.I think theres something wrong with me but Im not sure and I have always had stomach problems like constant nausea and stuff.But the diarrhea is the worst I have it all the time and when I do it lasts for a good while.
I think I have diarrhea at least 4 times out of the week on a normal schedule but lately I just cant get rid of it its lasted longer then is usually lasts.I was wondering if someone can tell me if I am just being paranoid about my stomach and if I need to see a specialist about it.

see a dr. there are so many different illnesses that can affect your digestive system.
please see a dr. it is better to be safe than to end up feeling worse.

Yes you should see a specialist about that (even if it is paranoia).
Imodium is NOT medication. I mean it does not cure your diarrhea and should only be seen as taking an aspirin against toothache. It only stops that messy symptom for a while. It will never fix the underlying cause.

It could be diverticulitis which is irritated by certain foods and stress. This condition can cause the persisting diarrhea. However, you need to see your doctor.

You need to see your doc to find out what is wrong. Yes something is wrong but your doc needs to figure what the problem is.
