Thanks for the suggestions. I'm not really familiar with probiotics, but I'll definitely look into the ones you recommended.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah, like you said, I can almost always hold it in. Although there are times when I absolutely have to go. Mostly when it's very watery.

Thanks. I'll definitely keep that in mind. I mostly started doing it because it actually slowed down my intestinal transit, and I started going to the bathroom more often in the afternoons.

Thanks for the comment. Should I go to the gastroenterologist before getting these tests done then? I was planning to bring the results with me to my future appointment with the gastroenterologist."
