Anyone else go about 3 times in the morning? I have to go everyday at work and its pretty much never sold, diarrhea type (sorry to sound disgusting) im usually ok in the afternoon. Any causes for this?

Are you drinking a lot of coffee? My Gastro DR and I both have the same 'problem'...two cups - fine; #3 or more and it stimulates the bowels!!

you need to take a fiber powder,i take organic ground flaxmeal,it food
and is good for you GI tract, metamucil and others are available.you
need to bulk up your stool.going three times is fine as long as it does not hurt
but the diarrhea is no good, foods like bran are good but eat also root
vegs and fruit,mangoes, you need insoluble and soluble to have a good
soft tube stool that comes out all at once is the key .

It may be your cereal, I had to give up cereal in the morning because of this, at first I thought it was milk, but I started to drink milk and I was fine so I had to give up my cornflakes and that problem has solved.
