I've had this since I was a kid. Every now and then I get lower ab pain sometimes accompanied with the gurgling. I use the bathroom and it's like diarhea/watery. After I use the bathroom I feel completely fine until it happens again, usually every few months. I have no clue what this could be and why I've had it for so long
Hello Fuzz,
It sounds like you are having digestion problems along with perstalsis problems. The intestine may be trying to push material to quickly generating a loose bowel or diarrhea. That is so long has you haven't eaten something that was bad. Some people have a problem with local cholinergic innervation of the gut. The cholinergic neurons may be over active stimulating muscle contraction to quickly. Movement of digested and undigested materials have to move at the proper rate. If they are pushed through too fast you get a lose bowel. If materials move too slow you get constipation. You might consider taking immodium when this happens.
