So, there I am in the supermarket, feeling fine, picking up lots of fresh yummy foods, was with my mum and two young kids and I started feeling a bit sicky...... I carry on walking the eisles and suddenly I get a cramp low in my tummy ..... I couldnt move and it happend ... I pooped in my pants (well D and mucus) !!!! I was mortified !! I told my mum .. get the kids, leave the karts, meet me in the car!!!

I got to the car, my mum got the kids in .. and I drove home.. had a shower and got dressed!! I just cant beleive it happened, I have had an accident once before and that was after xmas shopping, I was in the car with my friend and there was a major accident on the motorway so we were stuck in a jam ..... I had no other option than to go in my pants :(

I suffer really badly with urgency .... I have to know where all loos are !!! I am considering moving to a house with 4 derooms and 10 bathrooms lol !!!!

I just wanted to share this with people who understand !! I dont mind if you laugh!! xx

Tazbum, I'm so sorry to hear that. You poor thing. I hate what this disease does to people. Most of us will relate though.

Hey, don't sweat it, I just got back from the mall, went to see Alice in Wonderland w/my family. Before the movie, my daughter & I got a slice of pizza- had to go to the bathroom, while walking to the bathroom things started moving, if you catch my drift! That's my usual, I'm en route to the bathroom & it just starts to come out. Nice, huh? I always wear a panty liner & carry a spare, so I just switched the liners, cleaned up, did a little more while finally on the toilet, & off we went! Great movie too!!!!

Yah. I'd wear a pad when I was in my last serious flare. I guess it's easier for us girls. We're used to wearing pads.

I've had quite a few accidents in awful places - gym, train station, often on the walk home from the train station or walking around the shops. I find it would be ok if it was just a solid item that came out but it's the whole D and blood and mucous which u can feel seeping through your clothes, plus I often get a bit of noise with it and such bad crampings that it's hard to walk along as though nothing's going on down below!! I often feel that it's like a volcano erupting and finally spilling over as my belly kind of starts shaking with the cramps then they'll be an explosion of (sometimes noise) plus contents!

Trust me, it's not any better when your stools are formed, they still come out uncontrollably and make just as much of a mess and smell....not to mention a noticable bulge depending on what you're wearing...either way, it sucks.

I'm sorry I know how you feel.  I've had a few accidents while out and it is horrible.  I have a bucket and a roll of paper towel and a change of clothes in my car at all times.  It sucks and I feel ya.

I feel for you, and I believe this happens on many of UCers. Also, as Subdued says, women are used to pads. I (a man) still haven't found a comfortable pad. I just use toilet paper which often moves away from anus...Hope I can invent a type of pad for men :)

I have an ileostomy for 2 1/2 years. When I still had the darn colon, I wore rubber underpants when I would be out where I could not get to a BR immediately. Filled my pants several times, even at work in a Ford Motor building as far from my desk as I could get, without the rubber pants. Strangely, it never happened when I was wearing the rubber pants. Did they remove the fear and allow me to relax a little?

Got them from a medical supply company. Try it.......until you decide to get the darn colon out.

Oh thanks all xxx I know im not the only one to suffer in this way xx

I wear those tena lady pants, they are pretty good you cant really see them and they feel comfy, I know what you mean polishdan, I dont have a problem when I wear the pants ... but go in my sexy pants and its like urgency !!!!!

Im hoping that the steroids im on are going to kick it into remission ... otherwise I might consider getting rid of the colon altogether :(

XXXXXXX

haha, sorry had to laugh and I will tell you why ... 1, I do completely understand and completely sympathize with you. 2 ... i just went through another fine piece of underwear apparatus the other day when coming back from my friends house. All was well, pouring rain out, and all of a sudden it was like someone stuck a knife in me. I knew what was going to happen, god knew, I think the little kid across the street knew what was going to happen. I rifled through two pairs of underwear (yep, I wear two) like a hot knife through butter. The worse was when I got to my apartment and my landlord was trying to introduce me to their friends (we are close) I was like, ummm, yeah, that is going to have to wait. Hang in there, and do know that you have people backing you. I have to throw out the drivers seat in my truck. It looks like the ***** rings of saturn. Stay well, and feel better!

I can relate. I came home one day and my landlord was there (he mows the lawn for us) and wanted to chat and introduce me to his daughter. I had an accident in the car and didn't know how to get into the house without them seeing the back of my pants. I had my husband distract them while I went in. It was so embarrassing
