Constipation is a big thing, a battle many of us fight and some fight the opposite battle with uncontrolled Diarrhea.Having done both, think I prefer Constipation as it is less visible and embarrassing, but really both suck.

Something is always around for many in Urine and Bowel control and I like when someone brings it up. Have I spoke to my neuro? Not really, not sure he's a good choice. But a neuro's female PA (?)( Nurse but really almost a doctor.), she was excellent, full of practical suggestions, etc. No longer see that neuro (Or her now) so hope I continue with no big sexual pronblems (except "Does this wheelchair make my butt look big?" to ask my poor neuro. (that question is for DH, not the Neuro)
My PA suggested a not so good concoction of Prune juice, bran and applesauce. When I'm desparate, I do it. ICK.

Urine incontinence is a whole other thread.
