Hi all,

Hope everyone is good.

Just an update on trying to get my life back on track today I completed my first day working back at home which was nice.

Regarding my fainting episodes, I have given into pressure off family and taking friends advice and have booked a Doctors appointment for Wednesday.

Only issue is I dont want to mention about crapping my pants but advice i have had from family is to tell the doctor about this, problem is i cant bring myself to say it, even when people bring it up I run off in shame, even the mention of anything poo related and Im near sliding under the table with embarrassment. How exactly do I ask/tell the Doctor that when Ive fainted on a few occasions I have to have a bowel explosion and violently dump in my pants? Just so embarrassing

Why not write it down and hand it to the doctor as soon as you get there?

You need to get over this. The Dr has heard it all from his her other patients and will not blink when you mention bowel movements. Get your priorities straight. Bring a family member if you need to.

Thanks in the end i said i keep fainting and losing control of my bowels and end up fouling myself. Was so embarrassing im being sent for tests, wouldnt be so bad if it was just wee but its happened on 5 occasions and i end up crapping my pants everytime.
