Give it time. I had my reversal Oct. 2013. It took a full year for things to become stable and normal. In the first 6 months, things are rough and the number of bowel movements are higher and sleep is at a premium. It will get better. I used immodium as well, it helped a little. I also feared something going wrong and every pain and tweak made me worry the pouch would fail. It hasn't failed me yet.
