Yeah, just be careful with Immodium. We IBS'ers have over-reacting guts. While Immodium would merely stop D in a normal person and allow them to return to normal soon, it might really stop an IBS'er up for a while. People who are severely D can take them every day as a preventative and still have a normal BM. For me, though, it's a delicate balance. I am prone to D more than C, but will very easily get C if I'm not careful. Try avoiding the Immodium for a while and see if you can't just control it with diet. For me, usually a D attack is a one- or two-shot deal, not an all day event like with a stomach virus. So, I just go as much as I need to, and I'm generally okay for the rest of the day. See if that works for you. Are you a D or an A, normally?
