Do I have colitis?!
Question: Hopefully, I do not have colitis.
I went to a website after looking it up on yahoo answers,
and founf some of my symptoms were true for this disease or condition and some to prove false to this accusation. Recently I have been having an extreme case of "the runs" and at first they were extremely watery and made well, bluntly, a poo water. LITERRALLY. But the second day they started to become not as big, and would have little red specks resembling food, not blood, but it could very well be. They also looked thin, not at all what normal poo looks like, like a solid, this looked flaky or paper thin.But the first "accident" happened in the morning,while I was getting ready for school.I literally felt myself beginning to use the bathroom, and ran for the toilet.It has been three days. and I have had these flaky,thin types of accidents for the past two days.I had the watery ones on the first day,about 2 0r 3 times and had to DASH to the bathroom.The last time I found a lot of goo in it!

hi just, for accurate information please check out the Crohn's & Colitis of America website. They have updated information on treatments, diagnosis, diet, etc. They even have a hotline and live chat that is run by healthcare professionals well versed in IBD (inflammatory bowel disease--Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease).
Give your GI a call and see if he can run some tests to r/o that out plus IBS, spastic colon, etc.
