hydrocortisone suppositories?

No, unless they are curing a cause for diarrhea and you are taking antidiarrheals at the same time. But, I would not expect a change that fast.

should i risk another night and try them again without my immodium? this is so confusing because how do you know if you have diarrhea with a j-pouch. its all diarrhea really, isnt it? my doc gave me these suppositories because i have this constant ache in the right side of my anus. any ideas what it could be? hes scoping me but cant fit me in for 6 weeks. i have an external hem that is almost gone but the pain feels like its right there. it get worse as the day goes on and is least painful in the morning. my bms are liquid and gassy but to me thats always been diarrhea but to me it sounds like a common j-pouch bm too. its driving me mad and i cant get any relief...

Sounds like a plan. I would not be surprised if your hemorrhoid is still causing you grief. Maybe you have an internal one too? If so, the HC suppository should be helpful.

As to what is diarrhea with a j-pouch? For me, it is not about consistency. It is about frequency and urgency. I pay no mind whether it is firm or runny.
