Dear PMartin,

What you experienced with doctors is very typical. They apparently have not suffered from this and therefore don't understand at ALL!

I personally find that OTC Imodium works just fine when needed. Forget the Lomotil if OTC Imodium works for you. I purchase the Advanced Formula and don't have to use it very often, only when I have 'cheated' on the diet. Shame on me! Even so this OTC Imodium works just fine for me while I get back on track.

It is very sad that patients have to educate doctors, yet it seems to be the 'norm' today. Doctors have spent significant money on medical school, yet we spend a lot of money we don't have enlisting their supposedly 'educated' help. Doesn't work.

Stick with Heather's recommendations and keep reading on this site and beyond. You will get here the understanding and meaningful help that you really need.
