Hi have you tried those medications with some over the counter laxatives like miralax or magnesium to help things get moving or seen a motility specialist. Maybe a specialist might have some ideas. I completely understand your frustration. I am on Motegrity and some over the counter laxatives. I am retired. I don’t think I could work with all this diarrhea. It’s been a life changing illness. Hang in there.

I have tried everything. the mineral oil for me is a lubricant that helps things slide out. I don't get diarrhea.

Yes my colon has no mobilty. We tried to see how things are moving and did the radioactive tracers. They did not move at all in 3 days. All 15 still in system and in same location. Trying to keep me from having colon removed.
