My experience with immodium is not very good even with an ileostomy. It makes me feel as if I am having a blockage. I will take it if I have to in order to survive at work, of course. I should eat very minimally in order not to feel gross.

For long meetings/events, would I need these meds only during the initial months/years, and be able to survive with slow digesting foods after? Is it very likely that I will depend on these meds for long events for the rest of my life?

What are your top slow digesting foods?
