Reply to "1 year out and not where I want to be"

Hi newdad,

I feel ya bro!

I am 9 months post takedown 1 and 2.

I spent the entire month of November 2021 with what I thought was fire shooting out of my butt.

I finally turned it around by taking loperamide 2mg 3 times daily on a schedule; breakfast, dinner and bedtime. It’s the only therapy that slows my gut down enough to have somewhat of normal life.

admittedly I have not really tried the Metamucil route consistently enough to see a difference, but for now the loperamide has given me a satisfactory QOL  for the time being.

many foods and drugs will throw off my balance, but I can finally say I have I am having more good days than bad days.

Hang in there
