It's s very common symptom of anxiety. That's why medicines like eldoper will not help, as they are for diarrhoea. But your wife loose motions are not because of infection in stomach. She needs to treat her anxiety. Try to relax --
exercise. Exercise is one of the most important things you can do to combat stress. Take a few minutes to breathe in and out in slow, deep breaths.
Reduce your caffeine intake. Write it down. Chew gum. Spend time with friends and family. Laugh.
