P.S. sorry this is so long, but before dentist, 2 days before i start taking Imodium and cut down on what i eat, very plain, and take or wear disposables, even have those plastic underwear... it upsets my routine, if i in fact have a routine, but like you dont want to have an accident in middle of dental work.... and rather do all this before going anywhere, i now stay home. Was at daughter's for half hour the other day as she was going away, went to go pee in her bathroom and yep, fecal incontinence, but i take a bagt with me with change of underwear, cloths, wipes, spry, you name it... but its still miserable to go through so rarely visit her and she is only a few blocks away. Whereve i go my bag of emergency supplies goes with me.... a therapist with colitis gave me that tip.
