Fed up. Soiled myself in car a couple of weeks ago. First time this has happened. And today whilst out dog walking had to go urgently again. This time used bushes. Getting to the point of not wanting to go out just in case I get caught out.
Any advice/ideas? Any Supplements or drugs I can take to bring back confidence? Forgot to mention that I have Crohn's, I was diagnosed 30 years ago

Most of us have been in your position and understand how humiliating it can be. I'm sorry you're going through this, but don't give up. I take a drug called Colestipol which has given me almost total control over my diarrhea. This drug works for those of us who lost our ileocecal valve to a bowel resection and have what's called bile acid diarrhea [BAD]. I don't know your medical history, but it's something that might help if your doctor agrees. I take a 1gram pill AM and PM and for the first time in almost 40 years I'm able to go out and be confident that I have time to get to the loo if I start feeling the rumblings.
I wish you luck and better health.
