Anyone have chronic diarrhea while on digestive enzymes?

I made a discovery yesterday re: fat. I saw the fat content of peanut butter is 18, at least my brand. So I took a chance and increased my Zenpep from 40,000 to 60,000. I had the first “real” BM since my journey began. Right color, right size and, if you’ll excuse the expression, clean toilet paper. I don’t know if it will hold, but it’s my first good news. I am going to adjust my dosages to fat content. I’ll post again in a week to see if it truly made a lasting difference. I don’t ask permission, I just experiment. Sugar I gave up from the start; I didn’t realize how important fat is to my new system.

I have been eating nut butters at the suggestion of the hepatobiliary dietician at MSKCC to increase my calories, since animal fats don't do well with me. Saved my life I think. I like almond butter and cashew butter. Some of the high quality peanut butters can be good though. I have been eating Nutella as well, but very high in carbs. I found a chocolate/hazelnut butter by Justin, much lower in carbs, tastes good. I take three 36K Creon with each meal, don't try and adjust my dose.
