Reply to "Takedown incontinence after ileus"

Sara, I had a 10-day ileus and I was pretty pessimistic after that, but everything settled down over time. You really do need to walk, even if you have to wear adult diapers to make it possible. I also suggest plenty of kegel exercises to beef up your sphincter tone. Good luck!

I'm wearing pull up incontinence briefs because I can't control when I poop. I haven't started eating yet but I'm going to give it a try today. Maybe this will thicken things and make my bowel do more normal peristalsis. Right now I'm just completely distended and things are rumbling and gurgling like crazy.
