@fighter ooops, can I change the wording of my post to:

If younger and lived in a bigger City with a hospital that performs it, I would pursue a fecal transplant ... they say it works very often.
I have read that some people are doing it themselves at home but that it is not recommended because it could spread infection from one person to another etc...as fecal matter has to be rigorously inspected for germs etc. from the donor by the hospital..... . plenty of information on Internet about it.
(Thanks for pointing that out, fighter) J.

Hello @lacy2

Have you ever seen a pelvic floor therapist? If not, consider asking your doctor for a referral. They can be very helpful in dealing with constipation and incontinence (both fecal and urinary). A pelvic floor therapist can provide information on exercises, breathing techniques as well as nutrition to help you deal with these problems.

Seeing a GI doctor who specializes in motility disorders will help put you on the right track as well.
