No current symptoms of GI upset. History of several falls over the last few months and worsening balance. Comorbidities included coronary artery disease with previous myocardial infarction and angioplasty 15 years earlier, carotid endarterectomy, bullous pemphigoid, hypertension, vertebral fractures, and osteoporosis. Staff at his retirement home managed most instrumental activities of daily living (e.g., laundry, food preparation). Orthostatic hypotension was noted (on 2 occasions, his blood pressure dropped from 115/55 mm Hg supine to 83/42 mm Hg standing, and from 127/70 mm Hg supine to 97/64 mm Hg standing) and was associated with dizziness when the patient stood up quickly or bent forward. He described sleep as good, although he reported taking 1.5–2 hours to fall asleep and a need to go to the bathroom twice nightly. He had little energy and napped up to 6 hours daily and he had lost weight because of a poor appetite. Despite this, he felt he was not depressed.  He reported bouts of diarrhea every 4–5 days starting in the last 2–3 months and 4–5 episodes of fecal incontinence over this period.
