Green apples, blackberries, and a good dose of salts. But the best way to give yourself diarrhea is to wash your dishes in greasy soapy water and not rinse them -- just let them air dry.

(This thread IS about how to get diarrhea, isn't it? I can't imagine why you'd want it but I'll do my bit to help.)

Cinnamon toast, sardines in oil, and blackberries? Now, that would make me **** on the best of days.

Burnt toast. Regular burnt toast and black tea.

Of course, the cinnamon does sound good as it would provide a fresh aroma to the, ah, er, kitchen.

Normally, I wouldn't contribute to a thread like this; it addresses questions which are too fundamental. But, after some lurking bug has sent me running to the toilet for the fourth time in three weeks, I can't hold it in much longer.

At the risk of sounding like my own mother, I seriously doubt the dedication of the medical and pharmaceutical professions to dealing with these problems. When once the quack would prescribe a kaolin and morphine mixture, which the chemist would make up with much measuring and pouring, I now get a packet of capsules with a meaningless commercially registered stream of syllables for a name and a ten-page puff piece for directions, telling me that the manufacturers deserve a Nobel Prize for making such a "fast effective relief".

The capsules are, I must inform my quack, useless. So far as I can tell, their chief recommendation as medicine is that they have been determined after prolonged and rigorous tests to be no use as a weapon of mass murder of rabbits and sad-eyed beagles in Cambridge laboratories. Kaolin and morphine might not have been rocket science, but it kept matters under control until one's own digestive system had a chance to rally and restore normal equilibrium.

My own pet remedy (actually no fix but prevents the bilious headaches and cramps caused by dehydration after prolonged trips to the throne); a pint of water with a teaspoon of sugar and a couple of pinches of salt.

Assuming I don't croak from the "Delhi belly", I pass fifty years old in a month. I am getting into practice as a complaining old git.

Dr Collis Brown's medicine works. It contains morphine, tho, but it don't half work.

Keep your fluids up, even if you don't feel thirsty. For every trip, frink a half litre of water.

If you have to go outdoors, take a bog roll, some clean undies and some wet wipes.

Do NOT trust farts under any circumstances. Hope you feel better soon.

Immodium and Lomatil are the same thing and it is a mild opiate. The generic name is Loperamide and someimtes Lopermide based meds contain an anti-gas component called simethicone.

Go here for more info from wikipedia:
Loperamide

A useful remedy for the runs is called the BRAT Diet or the B.R.A.T Diet.
>>The BRAT diet is a historically prescribed treatment for patients with various forms of gastrointestinal distress such as diarrhea, dyspepsia, and/or gastroenteritis. The BRAT diet consists of foods that are relatively bland, easy to digest, and low in fiber. Low-fiber foods are recommended because foods high in fiber may cause gas, possibly worsening the gastrointestinal upset.[1]
BRAT is the mnemonic acronym for Bananas, Rice, Applesauce and Toast, the staples of the diet.[1] Alternative BRAT diet formulas include BRATT (Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Tea, and Toast) and BRATY (Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast, and Yogurt).<<

Thanks for that song!! I'll be humming under my breath for a few days now...

I think the humour comes from the universality of the problem. Everyone has had a digestive upset at some time of life and it's embarassing enough talking about pooping when all is well. It's the schaudenfreude aspect of it that makes it so amusing. OK, it's shit, but it's someone else's shit.

Passing through a small town in Ireland, Logherrea (sp?) I misprounced it while the locals laughed:
"Loggereeuh". It's pronounced "lo-cray".

Is "diarrhoea" a disease known in gaelic? Or a small town in Ireland?

I had an uncle who called it the "shizzlin' drits". A rose by any other name. Explosive diarrhea. The worst.

OTC cure: Equalactin. One of the best non-opiates.
Immodium IS an opiate which works exclusively on the seratonin uptake in the intestines and does not effect the brain recptors. With all opiates you can get a rebound effect where you oscillate between bouts of constipation and diarrhea. Only use them if you have to.

OTC belladonna helps and RX phenabarbitol and other barbiturates greatly help with the cramping which in some cases can actually kill you. Donnatil (sp?) combines both. You must keep your electrolytes up and as contradictory as it sounds you have to keep taking goodly quantities of water. Dehydration is a concern. Lomotil is another good RX.

Good diet, of course. Keep the roughage at a modicum. Too much fiber can really rip right through you. Keep plenty of reading material by the throne and try to keep a sense of humor about you. Crack the window open and flush often!!!!!!!!! :E   ('c')

Diarrhoea is my second favourite word in the whole of the English language. Last year I used it in a call-and-response at a Hallowe'en storytelling event I was doing at Hardwick Hall in deepest Sedgefield. How heartening it was to hear an audience of a hundred or so othewise respectable adults and children shouting 'Diarrhoea!' at the top of their voices...

Anyway, I'm cured now, and today I found myself heartily tucking into the various samples of exotic cuisine on offer at the European Market at St. Annes, though I didn't risk the Kangaroo burgers. Maybe tomorrow.

A whole world of songs about poop.

Diarrhea, bum, bum!

(contributed by NakedEwok)

When you're standin' in the shower
And you smell somethin sour,
Diarrhea, bum, bum,
Diarrhea, bum, bum!
When you're slidin' into home
And your pants are full of foam,
Diarrhea, bum, bum,
Diarrhea, bum, bum!
When you smell somethin' funky
And your pants are feelin chunky,
Diarrhea, bum, bum,
Diarrhea, bum, bum!
When you're sittin' in a class,
And that fart let out more than gas,
Diarrhea, bum, bum,
Diarrhea, bum, bum!

I liked the song from the Steve Martin film 'Parenthood', sung by his children at the beginning of the film.

'When you're sliding into first and you're feeling something burst, diarrhoea, diarrhoea.

When you're sliding into home and your pants are full of foam,
diarrhoea, diarrhoea!'

There are verses missing, can anyone who has actually seen a baseball game enlighten me?
