This was me for a long time, perhaps not with the same level of urgency though. Like you, I went from being really bad (to the point that it interfered with my life all day) to this after going on Heather's diet, just mornings mostly, which I could deal with, and did for a while.
I found that, as others have mentioned, taking an SFS right before going to bed helps. You do need to take it with water though. I took the pills for a while - man, that warning scared the s*** out of me! (lol, sorry no pun intended  ). I only took them for a short time though (taking acacia now, which I take before bed in a hot cup of tea). Sorry I can't really give more advice there. Would 1 cup of tea in bed send you over the edge for having to pee at night? You might also consider upping your total SFS intake too (throughout the day).
For a while when I was really bad I always kept immodium right next to the bed and took one as soon as I woke up. That seemed to control it, or at least slow it down (so you don't have to be dragging yourself accross the floor). After a while of doing that it was really helping and I wasn't getting D in the morning at all any more, and I don't need to take the immodium any more. There are other factors there too like sticking to the diet more closely and getting lots of exercise that lend to my stability, but the immodium definitely helped.
Hope that helps!
