I am a 61 year old male, who up to 2 years ago really had no bowel problems whatsoever…very regular…once a day in the morning after breakfast with no associated problems. However, for the last 2 years I have more often than not a problem with going at different times of the day now, and feeling I have to keep going, over and over sometimes, like it's not finished. Medium bowel movement for 2-3 days, then a larger bowel movement, and then the feeling like I have to go all day long. It is frustrating and uncomfortable. I was also been diagnosed with GERD and have been taking Protonix for about 7-8 years so that maybe part of my problem also. Any suggestions to regulate and relax my bowel movements to more like normal, or am I just getting old?
