My colon is partially obstructed (has been for some time, I think) and I definately have always had as the primary symptom, (besides stabbing pain) as Diarreah. I think the way it works is that what slips by ends up being softer, and while I am not sure why, I know I have this problem currently and the doctor said it was normal with partial obstructions. Is the stabbing pain gas pain, the one that moves around? That is my primary problem too, feel free to write me personally if you want to talk more about this.
