So very glad you finally got help for this issue and the Colestipol works for you. How did the PA figure out you had too much bile? Do you know how this problem developed?

I have bial salt diarrhea after my gall bladder was removed. Have been on either cholestyrami e or Colestipol since 2011. I take two pill a day. I still have urgency and BM after I eat or drink. It is frustrating as I can’t be far from a bathroom way too often during the day.

I am wondering if anyone has tried a different medication for BAM or bial salt diarrhea with success.

I hope you continue to do well with your digestive system.

Thank you for your response. I don't have any idea how this started. I just
remember going to my GP and they just prescribed immodium. I kept going
back and finally I was referred to a gastrointerologist. She was the crappy
one. I found another gastroenteroligist closer to my house. Once again,
after all these tests, the PA found the problem.I had so many tests I do
not know what lab work she was looking at. I hope they find the medication
that will help you. I am aware the diarrhea I had can return at anytime.
I know this can come back at any time,
