I don't know if its the pressure of a full bladder or the anxiety of an accident that triggers my bowels, maybe a bit of

E.Coli/UTI
As a result of some symptoms I reported to my Transplant Coordinator (“TC”) because I was recently prescribed Sodium Bicarbonate for the low CO2 result in my blood test, the TC ordered a Urine Culture test for me at LabCorp. It came back with a “colony” of bacteria in my bladder. I went thru 10 days
