Hello All,

I had my 3d resection in 2013 - all 3 resections removed about a meter of my small intestine. I was on TPN some time after the last surgery and now I manage to fulfill my nutrition needs without TPN - with the help of Modulen.

Although there is no flare, I have watery stools - not so many, but it definitely affects digestion and my chances to gain weight.

What did I try ?
Olestyr (Cholestyramine) - up to 2 packets a day - without success.
Psyllium husk (no powder) - tried from minimum dosages up to 1 tsp a day - without success.

What do you recommend ?
Maybe Psyllium in powder form ?
Anything else ?

Thanks
