I'm in the same boat with ya! I read that post about the Caltrate 600+ and I bought some of that. Gave it two full weeks and I couldn't take it anymore! Made my stomach knot up bad.....nausea, REALLY bad.....so I stopped taking it. It wasn't helping my diarrhea, anyway. I took the Culturelle probiotic for over one month, just stopped it, today, because it was causing my heartburn. I couldn't figure out what it was until someone told me that probiotics can give some people heartburn. So, I stopped that and today, I have no heartburn! Wow, I don't know why it gave me heartburn, but it did and it didn't help with my diarrhea, either. I wrote them and told them about it and asked them if they had any suggestions and they said that it probably isn't the right probiotic for me. So, everyone is different. Try it and if you get heartburn....it's the probiotic! The Imodium has helped my diarrhea, so keep taking that. Take more if it doesn't help. I take one a day and STILL have a BM every single morning. But, I don't keep going and going and going like I was before. I have more stomach problems now than colon problems, I believe.
I had an attack earlier, today, and ever since then I have been trying to eat to keep my stomach full and I have such bad gas that I'm drinking Sprite to help get it out of my stomach. I know carbonated beverages are a BIG NO NO, but it sure does help keep my stomach settled.
Let me know if you find something that works for you!!
I will be praying for you!!
