I am 53 yr old female & have been having issues with my bowels for several months now. Sometimes when I have to go, I have to go & that means now! There are times that if I didnt get there right away, I was going to have an accident. So of course, I have had a few accidents trying to get there on time. Then sometimes even after I have woke up in the morning, had a bowel movement, later on in that day I have a leak. Most of the time I go to the bathroom quickly as I can feel the leakage, & it may be a little bit of feces on the toilet paper. Sometimes I feel a leakage but theres nothing there. Today I was walking on the beach, as I was walking I felt a little bit of itching, of course there was no bathroom close by, so by the time I made it to the bathroom, I wiped & there was nothing. But on my shorts & panties was quite a bit of blood. If anyone had seen it, they may have thought I had started my period. When I am at work, sometimes I feel like I had a leak, go to the bathroom, wipe & nothing. I am so scared at work that I am going to have a leakage & it will be on my clothes, like today, & I am not able to go home. This is the worst I have seen it today, but since I wasnt close to a bathroom, I just wonder if other times it could be like that but I go to the bathroom soon enough to stop it? I sure do worry about how my bowels are, one time I am constipated, then later I can have diarrhea. Its almost like I need to be around a bathroom at all times, just in case. I have had a colonoscopy which they removed several polyps years ago, but I keep thinking I need to go back to that dr. Im kinda steady with my weight right now, I feel heavier, but was surprised to see I hadnt gained any weight lately.
Thank you
