I was going through my site stats today and noticed some very peculiar searches that landed some of my visitors on to my lovely medical student blog. All I have to say is that I feel you brother (or sister…but from what I’ve been told, girls don’t poop). I’m sorry you didn’t get the answers you were looking for and I hope you clear that problem up soon. The best thing to do is to consult a physician about your problem. Please, oh dear god, please wear clean underwear when you go get that checked out. There’s nothing worse than going to the doctor’s with poop stains. It just makes the whole situation a little bit more awkward and if you think that people aren’t going to talk about it then you’re wrong! Word spreads fast and pretty soon you’re known as the explosive diarrhea guy. Yeah my childhood was shit to say the least.
Speaking of diarrhea, I was searching through BMJ Clinical Evidence the other day for information on diarrhoea (because that’s normal), not because I have it…right now, it’s because I really wanted to know how to treat something like this for future references when I make my bi-weekly trip to the local whore house taco house. Did you know that roughly 4 billion cases of diarrhoea occur every single year and about half of those occurred in Texas!! Maybe that’s why Texans are so anal retentive…it’s because they have to be…for medical reasons! People really need to stop eating salmonella… then again you can’t really tell a Texan what to do.
Now you don’t often hear of people dying from diarrhea, but about 2.5 million people around the world die of this condition every year; most tragic outcomes occurring in third world countries. So what can we all learn from all of this? Don’t go to Texas; you’ll just end up getting diarrhea.

1Hi ADAM! Glad to see you back at the Unbearable Lightness! Yeah, your post comes hand in hand with mine. I’ve got a new entry by the way, a bit medical, so I know that you can relate to it
I would appreciate your thoughts about it.
Re: explosive/bloody diarrhea, well what can i say, i live in the third world and diarrhea is our no. 2 cause of morbidity (#1 is pneumonia). but the etiology is different from that texan guy i believe (taco vs poor sanitation).
maybe that guy’s got some hemorrhoids whatyouthink doc?
Hmm about the pubic lice: I guess I do hate them. As much as I would like to know the feeling, I’m having the inkling that naaah, I’m fine with having none. =) I also search BMJ Clinical Evidence and Entrez PubMed for the information (though you’re in luck if ever you can get past the abstract at PubMed without paying). Maybe I’ll try to also look for my eccentric google searches. If I got the time.
Nice, witty post by the way. I hope *he’ll get to read your entry. =)

2Diarrhea is still a huge problem here in the Philippines, especially in rural areas where there is only a communal artesian.
