I have ulcerative colitis and am currently not having a flare- as seen in my colonoscopy two weeks ago. I was battling a bacterial infection, but there doesn't seem to be any evidence of that being the cause of the incontinence either.
Yet, here is am, 34 years old, otherwise healthy, and when I pass gas, I often experience in continence. It's horribly embarrassing and I don't know what to do about it.
I do have a GI doc, but she can't seem to figure out what's going on. They have done blood work, a colonoscopy, and everything looks fine.
I was on vacation last week and this week , so luckily I've been hanging around the house. Idk what I'm going to do when I go back to work next week. I refuse to believe this is par for the course at my age, 34! It's embarrassing and ridiculous!
