Write me down as happy with my colectomy and j-pouch.
I've been taking loperamide (immodium) twice a day since my loop-ileostomy take-down in 2007. About a month ago I missed several doses in the same week and didn't notice much difference in my stool consistency. I decided to stop taking it all together. It's been a success and I'm glad to not be taking any medications at present. All I'm taking now is a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement. Medications are nice to have when they are needed, but it's a blessing to not need them as much.
