Guest guest Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 Hi! The loss of control of the rectal sphincter muscle was the first and most horrifying of my MS symptoms. (Imagine a librarian helping patrons in the Indianapolis School System Teachers Library to include all administrators who is walking around with no control of gas! The physiologist at Texas A & M who was doing Hyperbaric Oxygen research told me MS targets certain muscles--back and stomach. I'll add sphincter. Now I'm fighting diarrhea since last July's hospital overnight. LDN seems to help slowly. Am about to try White Oak bark tea. Blackberry root tea more work, but in yard. Embarrassing but not overwhelming! Time to get tough!

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 The best thing that has worked for me is using at least 2 tablespoons of crushed flax seed oil in with my morning hot cerial. Also, it is very good to drink a lot of water. Re: [MSViews_Multiple_Sclerosis] I Have .. Help!!! In a message dated 5/16/2005 9:25:01 P.M.

Thanx a bunch, Angie ============================================================= In women, weakened pelvic-floor muscles are often the result of childbirth or a surgical operation. In both sexes, stretching of pelvic-floor nerves goes hand in hand with the Western habit of sitting on the toilet for a bowel motion rather than squatting the way all primitive peoples have done and some peoples still do. When we sit to defaecate, a kink in the rectum (that prevents bowel incontinence) remains kinked, tending to produce constipation. Straining to overcome this resistance day after day, year after year, stretches pelvic-floor nerves. I am sorry this is happening to you, this is very complicated, does the above apply.
