put it bluntly. I have fecal incontinence not as major as some people but still very much ruins my life. After a movement is the worst.

Im going on my first ever holiday in a few weeks I really need help in ways I can deal with this while still enjoying my potential partners company.

tried everything I can wet wipes, bidet etc

doctor given many different constipation medications, finger up the rear few times.

the ideal situation would be not to have a bowel movement at all. which I can deal with.

      I feel for ya.

      This started for me when I didn't have a movement for just over a month. felt so bad.

      But at least I could go out and do things in public.

      now I'm to worried about the state of my rear to go out. only ever go toilet at home as it can take hours to get clean, cancel many plans and ruin many potential relationships.

      for my issue I just read Imodium could help fecal incontinence. Anyone here tried it? your results?

    i have a similar problem caused by chronic constipation as a result of having severe gastroparesis. It is horrible living your life around when a bowel movement will occur. if I can't go I am in agony and sometimes collapse with the pain. I hope you manage to relax on holiday as stress and worry makes everything worse. there are some good sanitary pads available now thankfully so stock up. this holiday will be a learning curvw I guess. good luck.
