Thanks for the laugh man.. sorry to hear of your misfortune though.. take some vitamins to help, here is some more advice:

Drug therapy

Sometimes medicines are helpful. They work by solidifying liquid or soft stool or making the bowel squeeze less strongly. If you are opening your bowels more than once each day and have soft or loose stool, your doctor may suggest some medicine such as loperamide (Imodium) or codeine phosphate to slow down the bowel.

Sphincter exercises
Sphincter exercises can help you to improve your bowel control, especially if your main problem is urgency. When done correctly, these exercises can build up and strengthen the external anal sphincter to help you to hold both gas and stool in the back passage. A specialist nurse or physiotherapist can teach you these exercises. Sometimes a course of biofeedback therapy will be suggested. This involves using a computer or machine to show you how your muscles are working, and how well you can co-ordinate the use of these muscles with a full bowel, and to teach you how to improve your control.

Bowel habit
Some people find that the bowel responds well to a regular habit. Reasonably regular mealtimes, with a healthy diet, and sitting on the toilet at the time most likely for a bowel action (20-30 minutes after a meal or a warm drink), will encourage the bowel to develop a regular pattern for some people. If you know when the bowel is likely to work, you can plan to be in a place that you can deal with this, even if your control is not perfect. More information

Resisting "the urge"
Some people who have had the horrible experience of a bowel accident in public understandably become very sensitive to anything arriving in the rectum. It is a natural reaction to try and prevent an accident by immediately finding a toilet. However, with time this can develop into a bad habit. As soon as you have the slightest feeling that you might need the toilet you drop everything and rush to the nearest toilet. It is easy to see how this can develop into a vicious circle. The more you worry, the worse it gets. The worse it gets, the more you worry. In the end it can almost be a self-fulfilling prophecy - you do not make it to the toilet because you are convinced that you cannot do so. It can be very useful to practice hanging on - on the toilet to start with, gradually getting further and further away as you urgency gets less. (Techniques to control the urge are much the same for bowels as for bladders, on which there is more Information on this site.)

Keeping the bowel empty
Sometimes the best approach to regaining bowel control is to plan to empty the bowel as completely as possible at a time that suits you, rather than the bowel dictating to you and ruling your life. The simplest method of stimulating the bowel to empty when you want it to is to use a suppository, which you insert through the anus into the rectum with a finger, and then hold on to for as long as possible (usually about 10-20 minutes) before going to the toilet. Some people with nerve damage find that a bowel washout is effective.

Can food or drinks have an effect?
Yes! The bowel is designed for processing food, and so naturally what you put in can have an effect on what comes out. However, it is not easy to offer advice on this as it seems to vary from person to person, and there is very little research on which foods can make incontinence better or worse. It is worth experimenting a little to see if you can find anything that upsets your control. Food rich in fibre is the most common contributor to poor bowel control, but other foods, such as very spicy or hot food, can upset some people. Some people have a bowel that seems to be very sensitive to caffeine, which is in coffee, tea, cola drinks and expensive chocolate.

Surgery
For some problems that cause faecal incontinence it is possible to do an operation. For other problems there is no operation which can help. If the external anal sphincter is damaged, it can often be overlapped again. The results of sphincter repair operation are usually good, with 4 out of 5 (80%) of people reporting some improvement 2 years after the operation. For people with more extensive sphincter damage, it is possible to construct a new sphincter, although this is largely experimental at present.
