Hi everyone ~
Over the last month, I've been having issues at least once at week when I need to take 2 immodium. My drug of choice. I feel great when on it. After 2/3 days, the plug comes out. But behind the plug, the next time I go, it's muddy w/cramping. I choose not to take more imodium as it's not really diarrhea, it's mud. And want to see what happens next. Well...the next morning my side was BURNING? I could barely bend over. Didn't go to the bathroom again but the pain was pretty bad. I take Librax for that pain and ended up taking 2 w/in a 10 hour day. No more mud...yet?
Any thoughts on what's happening w/my poor bowels? Have talked w/GI and he says I can take up to 8 imodium/day. What? Isn't that just putting a bandade on this? Getting really tired here. annoyed!
p.s. I forgot to take my priobiotic 2 nites in a row. Could that make that much of a difference?
Doc wants me to add 6 mp to my meds and get off budesonide.
Current meds...not working. help!
