I haven't had any tarry stools, just a bit of diarrhea after i eat something greasy i find. My stomach is definitely much more sensitive now in general, though.
Let’s just say a year. Things started lessening in waves but they’d come back. Had to take long acting antacids for 13 months but stopped now. 9-12 months things started to change. 12-15 months things really changed.


I had huge mental things with paws as well. That first year was hard. Hardest thing I’ve experienced. Diharrea in waves the whole time. The waves slowly dissipated for me and got less and less over time.

Scary stuff for sure. It’s the fear of death that’s driving me. I have just over 15 months now. Had a few slips at ~60 days. Don’t be like me. That made withdrawal worse. And when I say slip I mean full on relapse.
