Tumor removed 20yrs ago
My mum (84yrs) had bowel cancer about 20 years ago, she had the tumour removed, bowel resection, a stoma for a year which was then removed. What is becoming more and more common is a complete loss of control of her bowels. At least once a week she has diarrhoea with no warning. Whilst this has always been something she has been living with, in the last 5 years it is becoming more regular and therefore quite restrictive. She has been checked again by the consultant as few times, no issues at all. Is this something she now has to live with? Its hard to narrow down what triggers it too, but probably worse if she has eaten out, however it is also very unpredictable. Thank you
