Greg, I can totally relate, I had to cancel plans for lunch with friends because a had an unsuccessful BM yesterday. I became deeply depressed because BM's make or break not one day but two days. I already wear a bag for urine so I don't think another bag would be doable. What is the answer? I have thought about doing BM's in the evening so that I could sleep off the after effects of cramping and nausea. I can't swing that schedule with my current aides. It is getting old, hell it got old 30 yrs. ago.
