Well it's very strange. Went on an all day trip with hubby. Took two Imodium after I went in the morning. I had no diarrhea for 5 weeks everything was normal. Ate out no issues went on short day trips no problem. Went once a day sometimes even skipped a day. Now it's back again. Gastroenterologist doc said the Immodium was a crutch that reset my mind from worry. She feels I think and worry making it a reality.

@valarino - hmm ... I would have been a bit surprised if my GI doctor told me a medication I was taking was a crutch to reset my mind from worry. What was your reaction to that, internally or outwardly to the doctor?

You also said the GI doctor said she feels you think and worry, making it (diarrhea) a reality. Was she saying she thinks you are willing the diarrhea into being? What were your thoughts on that comment?
