Hmm... I'm not sure what to tell you about the D, but I would probably wait and start it on Sunday, if the dinner party is something you absolutely, positively cannot risk missing. I felt pretty darn crappy (hah!) those first few days, although it did start to get better after that. Don't keep putting it off because of plans, though - imodium should help the D, and you should feel SO much better in the long run. (It even helped with my IBS symptoms!)
Yep, I'm on 20mg. I plan on taking it for the rest of my life. I was really, REALLY hesitant about going on medication - for me, it was pride, I didn't want to be thought of as "mentally ill", which is utterly ridiculous. Once it started working for me, I forgot ALL of that - I mean, I can't say enough what a difference it's made. I don't even care about the long-term side effects. I have problems that REQUIRE medication. You might not have that, so don't even get your brain spinning about being on something for the rest of your life or whatever. One step at a time.
