Reply to "Emptying Jpouch"

Imodium is stronger than lomotil and I too found it better. I take 1 tablet every 2 days which is 2mg strength. Even that amount sometimes constipates me. Angie you should try with intermitent fasting. I eat in like a window of 10-12 hrs daily and rest my pouch other than that time. If you dont have any serious goals you can easily fast upto 14hrs a day. It relaxes the pouch big time. I'd say skip your breakfast and start the day with a good sized lunch instead. There are many articles online that explain intermitent fasting and its benefits.

And yes pysillium husk is gassy but I prefer having gas than liquid stools. Bulked stool are better held and lesser chances of leakage. You may initially find the gas hard to hold but soon the pouch adjusts to it.
