On Tuesday night I had a bad attack of diarrhoea. I took loperamide (Imodium) and I called the hospital on Wednesday morning; they asked me to come in in the afternoon and get reviewed by a doctor, so off I went.
They took blood, and checked me out. It is probably caused by GVHD, but they also think it might be an infection. We decided to take no further action, and see how things develop. If it stays bad, I must go back on Friday, otherwise I will go back to the hospital on Monday so they can keep a track of my blood counts. So far, I have not had any more diarrhoea, so the loperamide has done the trick, and maybe whatever has caused it has calmed down.
