My husband has had diarrea most of our marriage. By this I mean for about 30 years. Lately he has frequent loss of bowel control. These problems occur regardless of the diet he consumes as I have tried more than I can count. He is 57 and is very over weight. After lapband surgery 8 months ago he has gained an additional 40 pounds although he doesn't eat as much as most men I know. Recently he is having extreme bladder control problems also, He had his prostrate checked (blood) and had 2 cancer scares but the most recent results have been positive. I am at a loss to help him. He has seen numerous doctors that don't seem to find solutions to these and several other medical issues he is facing. Because of this I have a difficult time getting him to see a doctor.
