Fecal incontinence: What helps?

Hi. I’m 64 years old and suffer from fecal incontinence for years.
I had a anoplasty, nerve stimulator, a recent rectal prolapse repair, pelvic therapy and have an appointment for a flexible sigmoidoscopy and change in diet.
Nothing is helping. I’m at my wits end. I’m starting to think having a colectomy.
I looking for support and suggestions.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

When did you have your prolapse surgery? Was it laparoscopic? I had one 7 weeks ago and still have some pain in my belly area and hoping it’s not adhesions. The fecal incontinence has not gotten better and the surgeon wants to do the nerve stimulator. Please let me know if you find something that works.
