I've had diarrhoea (sp?) for nearly a week now. It's low grade, I'm not chained to the toilet or anything, but it's not going away and it's at least a couple of times a day. I feel relatively well in myself, but I got headachey and tired on Saturday which I'm pretty sure was dehydration, so yesterday I was drinking pretty much constantly in an effort to stop that happening again.
My question is, is there a point at which you would go to the doctor with this? Is there a period of time, or would it be when it started to make you feel unwell, or lose weight (I'm assuming I will start to lose weight through water loss if nothing else?). It seems such a daft thing to go for if it's not making me ill, but if it goes on much longer I think I will start to be worried. I'm not a person who generally gets ill (coughs and colds aside) so this seems unusual for me.
Sorry for such a grim topic first thing in the morning!
