Has your GI doc ever mentioned any sort of sphincter problems? Have you ever tried kegel exercises? 20 years is a long time to deal with such an inconvenience. When I had my UC, things could go south in a split second. It was hold on tight and make a run for it. Therefore I can somehow relate to such experiences.

Kind Regards,
