Hi Bop
I had a LAR with Ileostomy August 4th 21 and was reversed September 2nd this year so I’m in a similar situation
I have found that I’ve had to go back to the first stages of my food that suited my stoma. So it’s beige and chewing. I tried the natural approach recommended by my nurse but I had absolutely no control then I tried lopermide before meals this blocked me. My consultant told me to take one before bed. I know this is not the normal recommendation but I’m doing it and it’s becoming more manageable!
The holding on as recommended is also helping
There’s stacks of info here
Hope that this helps
