Q: Bm Right After Eating

Several family members have discussed this topic and we can't figure out what causes an urgent bowel movement right after eating. Nurse at doctor's office told my mother-in-law that there is no connection, but something has to be going on. Is the bm a reaction to spices, smells? :oops:

That always happens to me to...I always just see it as your body having to make room for the new food to come in!

Well, there could be several reasons for the bm after eating...Could be ibs? Could also be gallbladder?? Ibs would consist of bm's that are either constipation or diarrhea or only having one or the other and frequently...Gallbladder, your bm's would be green/black and there is usually pain sometimes even severe pain on your right upper abdomine, just under your rib cage. ( that is where your gallbladder is located) also, spices can sometimes upset a sensitive tummy. I have severe ibs myself suffering from constant and frequent diarrhea, never constipation. Its a major pain in the rear..Pun intended! :) I have also had my gallbladder removed when I was 8 months pregnant with my middle daughter. All of which suck! I know that for myself..Anything greasy or spices will upset my tummy and cause problems. Good luck to you and I hope this helps!
