My Miracle Cure
1 teaspoon Metamucil(psyllium)fiber every day
1 Imodium pill (2mg) every other day
How I got there: for ten years I have had Accidental Bowel Leakage getting slightly worse each year. I tried every cure known to Doctors and the to the internet with very little success. I have had no difficulty getting various tests and seeing specialists through my local Vetereans Adminstration Hospital.
About a year ago the VA sent me to an outside doctor to have a Anorectal manometry test, a test the VA did not have the equipment to provide. On my first appointmeant with the doctor who was to provide the test he told me to take 1 teaspoon Metamucil(psyllium)fiber every day and 1 Imodium pill (2mg) every other day as a trail for 30 days. I thought, at the time, this was a ruse to charge the VA for an extra appointment since in the past I had tried Metamucil and Imodium in various combinations for years.
Within 3 days I had completely stopped my problem Fecal Incontinence and have not had an incident in the more than a year since then. I kept the 30 day second appointment with the doctor to ask how he knew this would work. He said it worked for 80% of the folks he saw with problems simular to mine.
