What's a loose stool?

The typical symptom is usually an alternating bowel habit with tenesmus.

you will be fine TB, stay strong and stay awesome.
|
Bowel surgery is prone to complications and to reduce your overall health in the future.
I hope you are the exception, and that your health improves rapidly.
|
TB, don't give up! Stay strong and fight back.
|
The fact that you did so many clanwars in April, with all this going on, shows what an awesome guy you are TB and how lucky the starcraft community is to have you. Best of luck with the surgery and hope you make a full recovery.
|
All the support here restores my faith in the community :')
Good luck, we're all rooting for you to recover as quick and painlessly as possible!
|
You've given so much to our community over the years, and I'm sure that anyone with more than a casual interest can see you have the best intentions at heart in all your work. I hope that you make a swift and full recovery TB, my thoughts are with you and your family to make it through this challenge.

TB: The guy who gets diagnosed with a medical condition, and uses it as an opportunity to try to help the health of the community at large.
Well played TB, you are a class act and get well soon!
|
Best wishes TB!
We're here for ya :D
|
Be strong TB! Good to hear that you've caught it early, don't forget you've got the whole community behind you
|
TB much love. Thanks for letting everyone know, and for the advice on the real.
I got diagnosed with a mild skin cancer @ 29 as well! Very shocked - Basal Cell Carcinoma (which is fairly common but not really at that age). I had to have a couple of instances removed, and get checked regularly. It can be very hard to adjust (mentally) and you seem like you are doing really well, try not to worry about it man you've done just fine.
Stay awesome and keep us posted!

Hi TB, I enjoy your videos. You always seem to say something interesting and thought-provoking. Get healthy!

depends on whether it's left-sided or right-sided, but pretty much any changes in your bowel habit that you can't attribute to anything in particular
suddenly all GPs everywhere get a bunch more presentations of bowel problems lol

My god I hope he gets better. TB is such a cool guy, the world needs more of him, not less!
|
GL TB wish you the best. I had similar issues last year when I turned 25, I had blood in my stool, major pains , having a hard time to go. Scared me so bad I went straight and to the doc and got myself a colonoscopy, they found nothing and told me I had to go on a high fiber diet. People should never be embarrassed about stuff like that, scary stuff.
|
Get well soon, TB! Thank you for raising awareness to this kind of issue.
