Feels like I’m sitting on a ball and Fecal Incontinence!

A GI should run some basic tests. I have EPI (a pancreas disorder), take CREON, developed SIBO, and have similar issues, but I improved a great deal on what is called a Low FODMAP diet. The same issues come up, especially if I fly a long way, catch a small cold, stomach virus, forget to take my meds; the constipation ultimately leads to overflow issues. It's a nightmare when it happens, but it has gotten better.

Hi @creondave,
Thanks for your response to my post, it was very much appreciated! I’m sorry that you have had to experience this issue, especially the constipation and overflow part. I never know when it will happen so I sleep in Depends and wear a pad daily. It is quite embarrassing, especially when dealing with flatulence. I’m still working so I try to hold it in, but sometimes it slips out anyway. I try to move around a lot so I won’t be close to anyone when it happens. The smell is horrendous! I don’t know what’s causing that smell but I wish it would go away soon! 🤦🏽♀️ I’m glad that your issue has gotten better. Hopefully they will find a cure that will eradicate both our issues… Thanks again for your response, care and support! I hope you enjoy the rest of your evening! 😊
