Help on bathroom issue.
I've had a few close calls also. My clencher muscles are rock hard at this point. I have bought a WHOLE stash of those airline size bodysprays. I keep those everywhere! In my purse, car, lunchbox that I take to work, 3 in my desk, my coat pocket...I've been at a nightclub with my friends when I had to go. I do my thing and spray the spray and all is good! The worst is when I'm driving for a long time or when I'm stuck in traffic... I haven't figured that one out yet but I guess the only good thing about McDonalds is that they are every 3 miles on the express way.
It took me a while to realize after my DS I was whey intolerant. I knew that I couldn't do sugar alcohols from my diabetic time, but didn't realize that chewable vits had sorbitol in them. Plus, all the probiotics I tried made my gas and BMs worse. I did 2 rounds of Flagyl from my PCP after all the stool tests, and it cleaned up 95% of my gas issues but still had explosive loose stools.
Chia seeds were my saving grace. Firmed me up. I still take them when I need them. My body leans more to several BMs daily, not just morning, but mid-morning, afternoons, evenings, nights... It just depends. I was like that before my DS. I take cans of spray into the bathroom at work. It's now used by everyone in there. I also keep wet wipes, the box gets used by others, but me mostly.
Read labels. I can't do anything SF. Knowing your triggers will help. Sometimes I get caught off guard. Then another food goes into the AVOID list. I'm almost 5 yrs out.

I had bowel issues before my DS. It's not all the DS, but some of the foods that I can't eat now are broccoli, onions (common), wheat (gluten), SF stuff, SA, there are probably more. Some you discover after eating.
