Is there a doctor in the house?

[district12ravenclaw]

So, for about the past two weeks, I’ve been suffering from diarrhea. I think it’s a pretty mild case, but it doesn’t seem to be going away. I get some stomach cramps, and not a whole lot of time before I have to go running. I feel like it’s affecting my appetite as well. I’ll feel hungry, and then all of a sudden, I’ll feel sick to my stomach. It’s a cruel game my body is playing with me.

Normally, I would just deal with it, but when I’m in surgery, I can’t just go running to the bathroom anytime I feel like. I’m afraid to go to the doctor, because I really don’t want to be probed, but I don’t know how much longer I should let this go. Plus, I’m just sick of feeling so yucky. I could just ask the doctor I work for about this, but for one, she's a plastic surgeon, not an internist. And secondly, I really don't want my boss knowing about my issues.
