Since I take HIV medications that does cause diarrhea so bad that even Imodium didn't help. So now I'm on one daily dose of Calcium tablet. I had tried two a day that cause constipation and one every other day cause diarrhea. The doses may different from person to person and TM to TM. Todd in CC, TX

I had the same problems that you expressed. I can relate to the horror that you go through, and I still suffer from this. This occured from the use of too many antibiotics when I was getting pneumonia several times per year. My system is still very touchy, and the doc says my system will most likely never be back to normal. I take probiotics to give myself the best shot that I can at a healthy gut, and eat yogurt almost every day. Anyway, anytime that I am having a flare-up with loose stools, which is a few days a week at least, and it's a day that I have to go out, I always take Ammodium which is supposed to help with diarrhea. It usually stops the problem, or at least keeps me from having to use the bathroom for a few hours. I never worry about constipation from it, as I don't have that problem.
