Metamucil for post surgery diarrhea?

Posted by debhiowa @debhiowa, 1 day ago

Just curious, if anyone is taking Metamucil for post surgery diarrhea? I have surgery 3 months ago and my digestive tract is still off.. not as bad as before but my NET doctor suggested to try Metamucil twice a day, along with the Immodium. Sometimes I feel like it's helping, some days it's not.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) Support Group.

That is no fun. My husband uses metamucil amd immediately (when needed) to help control diarrhea. He's not post surgical -at least not recently - but past surgeries and meds have messed up his system

Ask about Colestid or Questran, they use these post gallbladder removal for bile salt diarrhea.
Definitely helps
