How do you manage daily life with IBS-D?

My husband has suffered from watery diarrhea for 11 years following intestinal surgery for appendix cancer. It is severe, multiple times a day (understatement), and life-altering! No suggestions but I do understand.

Hi, @dboesten - having watery diarrhea for 11 years sounds really tough for your husband. Is he considered to have IBS-D at this time?

Yes, it is challenging to live with. I was told IBS-D is difficult to treat. Keep being told to try different GI meds "to bind me" but they do not. At least we can support one another.
