My son is still having trouble to go out and be active.
He didnt attend school because of his illness and
i home schooled him but its not the same. He became
depressed. He still poops himself while he sleeps or naps.
Doctor still has him on 8 loperamide a day. 10 colestipols
and 3 metamucil pills a day. I also give him
probiotic and multi vitamins chewable as i was told.
Its been a year of his total colectomy. He just had yesterday
his upper and lower endoscopy. They found 3 polyps in stomach and took them out and got biopsy as well. Anyone here has any advice for us? Just want him to be able
to go out and enjoy summer a bit and return to school.

A nurse made a weird comment that had me thinking. During his upper and lower endoscopy she said he had all his pills in his stomach. Then she asked if he has a digestion problem. I said no that i know of. So now my worry is... is this the reason my son has pressure in his anus always and accidents while he sleeps. Cause its not his diet. I have followed all rules. Im starting to think the problem of him is not digesting pills? He takes colestipol . Loperamide and metamucil pills. He took powder for colestipol n metamucil but he couldnt tolerate it after two months.
