Takedown incontinence after ileus

I had my takedown after temp ileo on dec 10. I developed an ileus late the first day after surgery and nearly 9 days later it finally woke up. My problem is I've now been having episodes of incontinence out my bottom every 15-30 mins for almost 32 hours now. My abdomen is still distended and I can hear water and gas sloshing around constantly. My biggest problem is I cant poop while sitting on the toilet. It only comes out if I'm sitting, lying or standing and have no control over it. Will this get better once the distention improves or does the dr need to do additional tests to see if my pouch is working properly?

 

I'm not too happy with my medical team right now but too sick to get a second opinion.
