Utterly sick of my embarrassing bowel when I visit anywhere

I’m so embarrassed at myself, absolutely fed up with it.

Basically, whenever I visit people / go out for food with friends or even have people visit me in my home my stomach acts up.

I always need the loo urgently, today I visited my brother who’s NEW girlfriend was there. I had to excuse myself to use his loo 3 times (urgent pooping) and whilst sat chatting I moved and let out the hugest fart. 😞

I apologised and it was brushed off but I’m so embarrassed. It happens all the time! I’m petrified to visit people, not so bad with family but even going out with friends I’m going to the loo urgently until I’m empty and I’m full of wind.

Im the same even in my own home, I’m having to disappear off to the toilet every half hour or so or I’m passing gas!

I love going places, having visitors so why is my body acting nervous? What can I take to stop this happening?

Definitely see your GP. I suffer from IBS caused by radiotherapy in the pelvic area. Imodium didn’t work for me but a daily low dose of Codeine Phosphate has worked miracles for me. It’s been a life changer.
