Ive had awful diarrhea since day 2 post-op...my doctor never covered this. What do you take?

Imodium is what I would take but you might want to call your doc and ask him/ her

i thought of that but seems like i read somewhere no immodium....i just hoptd somtone may had been told what to do by their doctor,,,,thank you so much for the suggestion.

I read no imodium on here too when I was first sleeved. I asked my doc and he said it's fine. You can easily get dehydrated with diaherra. Please do ask your doc though.

I suspect people say no to imodium because it might slow weight loss?

I had this real bad too. My doc told me to take liquid codeine and that cleared it up. Hope this helps and you are feeling better soon. Xxx

Going through the same thing now - spoke w/ my doc today and he told me to take florastar (it's a probiotic) and when you have diarrhea to take an Imodium capsule. I'm 10 days post op now. Hope you feel better soon - I don't love this part

Same here since surgery! Metamucil helps, I know it seems counter-intuitive but it will "thicken" the stool. I mix with 1/2 light OJ 1/2 water.

Thank you for the suggestions...it is so tiring and right now i know I am not getting all my fluids in . It still hurts when liquid hits my stomach and im burping up soup etc. hours after Ive eaten it. If it wasnt for the diarrhea and reflux this would be perfect. Im not hungry at all and i even lost my craving for nicotene....just pray that one sticks.
