Wow, I didn't realize so many other people have this condition too. My problem is the ah, shall we say, less preferable variety of this affliction. It just started happening about 6 months ago. I eat pretty good, don't drink, but I do drink coffee...so what causes this...crap!? I did change restaurants where I eat lunch at about the same time this started. It is a good restaurant though - most everything is healthy and home made, but I wonder if they use that "Olean" stuff and don't tell anybody? Probably not, but maybe I will switch restaurants for a while.
The only suggestion I have that I did not see here is giving yourself an enema. This might be too time consuming to do before work every day. I usually only do them on the weekends. Once everything is flushed out, I am clean and dry for the rest of the day. I just use plain water, although there are web sites for all kinds of exotic/weird enema's. I'm not that into them - I just want to be clean and get on with my day. Only caution I would give is that there is sometimes some water leakage a short time after the enema, so after doing it wait around for 15 minutes or so before getting dressed. Best thing would be to shower after, that should be enough time for everything to finish. Another suggestion would be that one enema is not enough - keep doing it until the result is the same as what you put in. Once you have throughly flushed yourself, you will be amazed at how CLEAN you feel and you will stay that way until the next BM.
Thanks to whoever discovered the possible fiber solution - I am going to try that myself.
In regards to the poster inquiring about "Wow" chips - these are potato chips cooked with "Olean" - a synthetic fat not absorbed by the body (hence fat free), but known to cause anal leakage.
Anal Leakage Anonymous - if the name wasn't so socially stigmatic, we could start our own support groups and have meetings!
