@rocknrobbn - I have taken Motegrity for 6 weeks now- no diarrhea. Sometimes I take it with Amitiza. Definitely not perfect, but there is better action than before.
There still are times with total standstill- then I take Motegrity and Senokot. Usually works well, but there will be cramps. My goal is also to avoid SIBO - keep things moving.

I am afraid SIBO kicked in today. I have been having bone pains, and muscle tenderness and fatigue for a week and today diarrhea kicked in. Well at least I had 2 marvelous weeks. And I bumped up Colace to daily and was happy I had had BM 4 days in a row. But the other symptoms of bone pain, fatigue and muscle weakness are sure signs of SIBO. I will request antibiotics at my gastroenterology appointment tomorrow. He said I would need antibiotics intermittently. 🙁
