My husband had to have his colon removed 9/2012. He has lost so much weight. He still has diarrhea. Sometime he doesn't make it to the bathroom. Still trying to find the right food to eat because he has type 2 diabetes and can't seem to eat a well balanced or healthy diet that will not interfere with his diabetes. He drinks fiber and take Amodium AD for diarrhea. The pills he take for the pain after he eats makes him go to sleep. Early morning is the worst time for him. He be in so much pain, he can't eat to take his insulin or meds. He walks around the house holding his stomach because he is in so much pain. His stomach makes gurgling noises and sound like a river flowing through his belly which can be very embarrassing when out in public. He feels tired all the time. We can't go out to eat because he has to go strait home to use the bathroom.  Our social life is very minimum. Sometimes he spends his day in the room sleeping while the tv watch him:-). Need to know when will the pain and the diarrhea ease up. Has been hospitalized twice for diarrhea and dehydraytion within 2 weeks. Plus his sugar was elevated.
