My stools have been narrower and thinner than before for the past 6 months due to constipation and stomach problems caused by cortisone and diuretics. Is this normal?

It is not normal for stools to be narrower and thinner than before for an extended period of time. This could be a sign of an underlying issue such as endometriosis. It is important to consult with a doctor to determine the cause and receive proper medical advice and treatment.
