(I just let out a chuckle because this is probably the only forum where nobody would be surprised by a thread title like that...)
Anyway...
I have had a large amount of fecal leakage lately and I am wondering if this is normal or if it may be an indication of a fistula. I have had two surgeries for recto vaginal fistula and was warned that this could cause weakening of the sphincter muscles. Fecal leakage is nothing new to me, but with the recto-vag fistulas it was pretty obvious what was going on. Since it's coming out where it's supposed to so to speak, I am not sure if it's a fistula or just normal "Chronie" dribble (well, it's quite a bit more than dribble, which is why it's so irritating). I was just wondering if anyone else experiences this?
