I missed a question on a test. I put diarrhea as a symptom of hepatitis. Does anyone else agree?

What were the other options. While diarrhea may be caused, I would say that it is more unlikely than jaundice, fatigue, anorexia, fatigue, muscle aching and low grade fever.

Are you thinking about your hepatitis patient who was getting sorbitol or Kayexalate? That could be the source of your misconception.
