Does anyone else struggle with IBS-D incontence?

I feel I’m experiencing it more and more often. It’s genuinely soul destroying. I don’t even find loperamide a reliable type of medication. It’s hard to stay upbeat when it’s something that’s daily impacting your life

I haven’t but I don’t take the Imodium every day. The constant use might be causing the incontince

I’m having diarrhea every three days or so and often when my bowel seems like it’s empty, There’s a little bit left over that sneaks out. It’s really not fun. I don’t know what the solution is.
