Hey Guys,
Question for you: how many of you are having digestion and malabsorption issues? I feel like I rarely get hungry nowadays.
Also, I used to be lactose intolerant, and now I’m not anymore. Has this happened to anybody else???
Also, for some damn reason I have to poop almost immediately after eating… and its very annoying. I don’t think I was like this before.
What about you guys?
I seemed to have trouble digesting milk while on propecia, not anymore though.
I also rarely get hungry anymore. Feels like my metabolism has slowed way down. I don’t think I have as many BM’s as before. I get alot of bloating and put on weight very easily now. The acid reflux is the worst though. This seems to come for days at a time. Sometimes I’ll wake up in the middle of the night with it coming back up. Eating as clean as possible helps somewhat. Any “junk” food (ie, anything not paleo, except dairy) makes matters alot worse.
Pale stool, bloating, lower right intestinal/abdominal pains, constipation. Has improved with liver treatments. Proper diet helps. Research things that are easily digestable. Red meat, dairy, etc. are hard to digest.
Digestion has not been a big problem for me. Occasional bloody stool, especially from EGGS. Now that I eat eggs everyday it has gone away…no constipation or anything like that though… Yellowish stool from time to time as well… Its suggestive of the food passing through your intestines to fast… Ah la like what you guys are saying about crapping right after eating… However, that is kind of a common thing… Unless you’re crapping after every meal, which would be alarming…
I can also attest to not being hungry, but that is usually only in the morning… Before fin, i would wake up starving, even if I had a full meal right before I went to bed… However, I do seem to have an appetite, that or im just used to eating a lot… Im really lean, so idk…
Toadstool,
You should get checked for a stomach ulcer. Propecia gave me this problem. If you have one, it won’t go away on it’s own and can be very serious if not dealt with. Blood in your stool is a sign it could be an ulcer. A GP can a simple test to determine if you have a stomach ulcer. Mine prescribed Prevpac which eliminated the ulcer.
Im not to worried about it, It hasnt happened in at least 2 months. I never had any stomach pain either…
I had exactly the same. But as soon as I started thyroid medications, my shit became similar to my pre-fin one: not too solid, oily, and a lot of wiping required.
Nice
I don’t get hungry either. It’s a symptom that seems to have developed over the last few months. In addition, if I eat a large meal, I get nauseous.
And yes, it does seem like food is passing straight through me.
Just another item to add to the list of strange symptoms with no explanation.
My stools have not been formed since fin. I have low cortisol. Low cortisol causes low stomach acid. Boosting cortisol has helped somewhat.
