Yea, immodium pretty much took care of all my stomach issues. I had every other withdrawal symptom. It was a *****, but it would have been even worse dealing with a bad stomach. Take more of the immodium than it says to if u need it. It won't hurt ya except maybe constipate u a bit but that's better than being in John all day and getting dehydrated..

Have you already quit or are you thinking about it?..

One thing to keep in mind is that wd's also cause stomach pains which lead to a couple days of diarrehea if you don't plan against it..Immodium is best for that..It amazes me as to how many don't heed that advice as it really does work..So if you've started, you definitely need to have some of the immodium onhand...
