@angelique343 I have been taking 1 gram of Colestipol in the mrning and 1 at night. But my gastroenterologist increased my dosage to two grams each morning two grams each night. It definitely helps and I would recommend trying it. Also good to know is that you can take up to 16 grams a day! I am only taking 4 currently but it’s nice to know it can still be increased.

Hi @brunnece7 - wondering how your increased dosage of colestipol is going? Is it still helping you?

@smitty1950 - there are quite a number of tests for bile. However, @koneil mentioned a test he had that indicated bile level, so I'm hoping he can let you know what test that was. I noted that you can't get into see a GI physician till March but that you have MRIs scheduled. Hoping those are coming up sooner?
