Anyone can give me any advice, encouragement, times you recommend taking immodium, how much, anything to help getting this under control would be greatly appreciated. I'm too tired and miserable to search the forums, as I know it is likely there. Thank you.

I usually take one of each in the morning and that's it. Now i usually take nothing. I'm pretty normal now but I'm about 3 months out. U should start to get better after week 2 up to week 8 with a couple of accidents and alot of clustering. But as time goes by it will get alot better I hope. Now i sont get much clusterinv and my accidents dont exist touch wood. Hold in there.

I'm scared to take the metimucil this morning. There really isn't that much fiber, so curious if anyone knows how/why this is supposed to work better than food with higher fiber? ... I'm open to any suggestions. Thank you.
