My sister has been struggling with frequent bowel movements, going to the bathroom countless times a day but only passing watery liquid stool. She feels exhausted all the time and sometimes has stomach pain. She had knee surgery last year could that be related? What might be causing this and what steps should we take next?

I'm a 26-year-old guy dealing with some pretty bad stomach pain, and I've been told to take Cyclopam tablets for it. I'm just wondering, how often should I be taking them? Should I have them before eating, after a meal, or maybe on an empty stomach?

take cyclopam twice daily after food
