[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 573576, member: 47"] My system has been all wonky from my two surgeries last year and am going in for my third time in about a year for that colon test :( I cannot leave the house without my purse, cell phone and a spare set of clothes in my purse because of what you described. No anti diarrea pills work for me - just got a rx for something new on Thursday. I have IBS as well, and they did say stress may be playing havoc, but really, I have had worse stress in my life than I have now. They also gave me probiotics that I have to take a week on and a week off for a while. She said not to take them constantly as my body will eventually stop producing the good bacteria that I need. It has gotten so bad I don't even want to leave the house LOL Course SO doesn't help matters on our way out the door when he says "do you have to use the bathroom before we leave" I feel like a freaking three year old, but I can't tell you how many times we have left the driveway, gone a block and I have had to tell him to turn back. I wonder if the Garmin people know how valuable their service is on scoping out gas stations with bathrooms every time I plan to go anywhere. We had an office Xmas party at a restaurant and I didn't eat for two days before hand so I could sit and enjoy an hour or so without having to visit the loo (which was an exercise in futility cause the minute I drank....).
