Reply to "Loperamide or alternatives to help sleep through the night"

Pepto Bismol is worth a try - Doctor Shen recommended it. Have been taking Loperamide around 8 pm to settle my "every evening gut excitement" then Pepto 3- 4 hrs later. I've had a few good 6hr nights. (4 hrs at a time is my base line though some nights even that is interrupted. )  Take a look at other comments here by searching Pepto Bismol. Beware the black stool and tongue.

Diet seems to be all-powerful. I've shifted to a small meal, never late, oatmeal is best. I've tried Scott's Peanut Butter thing when I'm feeling particularly hungry but it's too late to eat too much. Seems to work.

Hoping things continue to improve as I approach the 1 yr mark in June. And wishing continued improvement for you.
