My family Dr. said if I had a flare up or frequent loose BMs I could take a Anti Diarrhea med prior to flying. My problem is that I never know when I am going to have a flare up or a trigger that my bowels are constantly wanting to move like every hour. Not eating is a good solution but If i dont eat at least a cracker or some toast I might get airsick. Wondering if Dramamine and Loperamide can be taken together? Ill have to check that. I take benefiber in my food or drink daily using one or 2 tsp depending. I find that eating spicy or foods that I dont normally eat may cause issues. If I stick to things that dont bother me Im usually ok. But stress seems to trigger issues sometimes and I sometimes get diarrhea when Im stressed. Thanks for the input and I sure hope and pray I dont have to wear depends yet. Im a 55 yr old female and that would be so embarrasing for me. But honestly stressing about getting to a bathroom while traveling is definitely a bit worry. Sorry it took you 30 years of dealing with this:( Most people think with diverticulitis issues people are constipated. Its quite the opposite for me. Im not overweight, I am fairly physically active and dont smoke or eat really unhealthy foods. I think genetics is a huge factor as my mom had 2/3 of her colon removed and hardly ever leaves her house:( Hoping this isnt my future. Hearing that you fly so much with this condition give me some hope. I will be flying approximately 3 or 4 hrs. connecting flight then another 3 hrs. I probably will not eat much the entire day and drink only water.
