Hi everyone! I'm finally at my goal! Hard work and determination. I'm going to London UK this Wednesday and had a few questions. I may have caught a bug, or something I ate didn't agree with me. The bacon, I don't know. Can I take maybe half of an Imodium if I need to? I found the kind that also helps with bloating and gas. Ok, TMI. Right now, I'm holding my own and the episodes passed, thank God!

I don't want the Imodium to cause me constipation. Pepto has aspirin as per the pharmacist. So, that's off the table. Is there anything safe I can take?

Hmm I will be curious what people say. I had RNY 3 years and 8 months ago, and I have taken Immodium maybe once a year since then, when something did NOT agree with me. I never thought of it being a problem. I didn't get constipation, I just stopped having diarrhea :) Good luck - and have a great trip to London - I love that city!!!

I take Imodium if needed and it does not cause me to have constipation.
