Well…I go 12 to 14 times per 24 hr period for 3 years now. I have tried Imodium and can’t seem to get the results I would like. It does slow things down but it turns into a difficult time to empty. I strain and strain. I recently tried a prescription from my GI and had exactly the same results. If I could just get past the straining part I could see the Imodium helping. Not sure how you guys do it, maybe Imodium is not for me…
