Hello all. I have cuffitis, which causes me to go to the bathroom up to 6 times at night (sometimes more. Imodium does not seem to help in that regard (it helps in others). I use Canasa and Proctofoam, but because I must go often, it does not stay in long, I really want to sleep more than an hour or two in Ione stretch at night before having to go to the bathroom. Any suggestions on how to approach this frustrating situation?

There are more things that can slow things down like metamucil and opiates.  You might want to try mixing metamucil in with applesauce after your last meal of the day and use Imodium, or equivalent.  If you have any left over pain medication you can try that plus I found sleeping pills helped as well.  It is like telling the j-pouch to go to sleep.
