> I can't believe I am writing this, but well it is on my mind, and I am too scared to ask a doctor. Well since I have increased my dose of Prozac from 20 a day to now 80mg a day, I have noticed a huge difference in my bowel size . Oh, gosh, I can't believe I am writing this.
> First I was constipated really bad at the high dose, and it lasted for about a week.

> But now it seems, oh geeze, that the size is so huge round and heavy and it doesn't flush. This has been happening for a month now. I don't feel constipated when it happens. I probably won't get anyone else to admit such an embarrassing problem, but does this happen to anyone else? Or do you know a "friend" it happens to?lol But it is like pooping out a soft ball. Gosh I said a lot of things on this site, but nothing like this, I should block myself. lol

If it errs on the diarrhea side, it can be subclinical serotonin syndrome. Don't be embarassed, we bear our chests about medicine, why not about #1 or #2 problems, or sexual ones as well.
