[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 93691, member: 77"] TMB2S, That is, in my opinion, the one definite thing that you should do as soon as possible, as others have said here: get an appointment with a pediatric gastroenterologist. Although your son maybe hardly comes into the category any more of pediatrics, since he is already 14, but I think that most of the cases of encopresis are with children, so yes, a pediatric gastroenterologist. He is the one doctor who has experience with this and knows how to deal with it. By the way, encopresis is not an illness. It is a condition. It can be caused by many many different things, which result in constipation. Constipation is the initial cause of encopresis. The problem is all the complications that that constipation causes, both physical and emotional. Please let us know how you are getting on. Have you made an appointment yet? Let us know when you do. And don't hesitate to come back and ask more and more questions. Any of us here who have been through anything similar and who have found ways of coping with specific problems will be only too pleased to share with you, and ease your way. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
