Hey guys been seeing a lot of mixed reviews about devrom for gas incontinence etc was just wondering if it has helped any of you guys out. I live in the uk and it quite expensive for me (£35) I am on my last straw with gas incontinence and was thinking about buying it
I’m really struggling right now and need some advice on how to handle my GP. I’ve been dealing with constant gas incontinence that I can’t even feel happening, especially when I’m moving or squatting at work. It’s joined by incomplete evacuation where I only pass a normal bowel movement but have some feces left , fecal smearing, and internal hemorrhoids that are making life a nightmare. On top of that, I get massive bloating immediately after eating anything and have lost my appetite, so I’m starting to suspect SIBO as well. My anxiety is through the roof because of the social aspect of this. I know I probably need tests like anorectal manometry and a defecogram to see why my muscles aren’t working, but I don’t know if I should be asking for a colorectal surgeon or a gastroenterologist. Does anyone in the UK know who actually treats the “mechanical” side of gas leaks and which specialist handles the SIBO side? Also, if anyone knows how to find a pelvic floor physio through the NHS who specifically deals with bowel and gas issues rather than just bladder, please let me know. I just need to know exactly what to ask my GP for so I stop getting bounced around. Thanks so much for any help. Also any tips/ advice would be much much appreciated.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some help understanding why my body is doing this. I have internal hemorrhoids, chronic constipation, and bloating. I’ve had two specific situations where gas escaped and I didn't even feel it until someone else noticed:
1. Playing Football: This was a couple of days after I had food poisoning. I was running and moving, and someone asked if I had farted.
2. At Work: I’ve been eating high fiber and eggs to help with constipation. I squatted down to reach something, and a colleague asked if I had farted.
My questions for you:
• The Sensation: Why did I have no sensation or "warning" that this was happening both times? Is it the internal hemorrhoids or the constipation causing me to lose that feeling?
• The Movement: Does the pressure from squatting or running act like a "squeeze" that I can't control?
• Diet Advice: What type of diet should I be on to clear the constipation without causing this level of gas and bloating? Are there specific foods (like eggs) I should avoid before work?
