Reply to "Questions about Metamucil and Imodium"

So I just got back to bed from a BM.  
I take Imodium 3x daily (breakfast, dinner, bedtime) to slow things down.

we are all different and I find when I take a fourth Imodium it actually will constipate me and the next day there is a lot of straining involved to eliminate.

I am 22 months in, and still experimenting with different foods and medicines to help me avoid liquid burning stools.

I have not really got into using Metamucil powder, but I’m sure others will weigh in and provide you some guidance in that area.

have you asked you surgeon/GI for a script for lomotil which is a class 5 narcotic that some here have found success with.

finally when I have IPS spasms I will take levsin sublingual. It shuts down my pelvic floor for about 4-6 hours and I get uninterrupted sleep.

you will figure out what works best for you over time.
