I had surgery about 7 months ago but still struggle with frequent urges to poop, especially when I leave the house. Is there any medication that can help reduce my bowel movements to just once or twice a day?

I can understand your concern. You haven't attached any reports as such with this question here. Also, why did you change doctors? And if immediate surgery is required, then i think you should get the surgery done. Consult a gastroenterologist in person for further evaluation and management

I'm really worried because I noticed blood in my saliva today, and I'm not even coughing. A month ago, I also saw blood after I vomited. What could this mean and what should I do?
Spitting blood in saliva without coughing or vomiting blood can be concerning. This could be due to various reasons such as gum disease, oral trauma, or gastrointestinal issues. Since you have also experienced vomiting with blood in the past, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. You may need to undergo further investigations such as endoscopy to determine the cause of the bleeding. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter antacids like Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to help reduce stomach acid and protect the stomach lining. However, it is crucial to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and management plan.
