I belch, burp lots changed breads, went to non gluten snack has helped some. Food choices are limited. Diarhea never ever stops ever. Been taking 5 imodium per day per gastro dr. It is a lonely place.

Evidently you are not alone. Try a nutritionist if possible.

You won’t like reading this, but need to urge you to keep searching for primary cause of consistent diarrhea. My story: for 3 yrs I shared your constant diarrhea; had CT scan revealing mass in stomach & liver; endoscopy removed stomach polyps & biopsies diagnosed small bowel primary Neuroendocrine Carcinoid Tumor with liver metastases; second opinion same as the 1st; Oncologist verified
diagnosis & began treatment of Lanreotide Injections every 28 days resulting in no more diarrhea symptoms. My disease has remained stable with some tumor shrinkage (MRIs).
I would not wish my situation on you, but I believe you need to not settle for 4 Imodium/day as your solution.
Best of health!
