Reply to "Total Colectomy after RNY Gastric Bypass"

Hello liberty, I had  your gastric bypass in 2002 and  I had a total colectomy and the majority of my rectum removed.  I had a bag for several months and recently been reversed it a month ago.  I'm losing a lot of weight which I don't mind but I also want to be healthy. However, the diarrhea is very frequent about 15 to 20 times a day and at times I find myself depressed over it  because it seems the nighttime is the worst so I'm not getting a lot of sleep.  Imodium helps a little bit and I do not like lamotil as it makes me dizzy & tired but I'm going to have to take it.  I'm still trying to find a balance as to what foods are ok to eat and what to avoid.  I would love to talk with you and others who may offer some more wisdom.
