    Are you thinking of sacral stimulation to prevent "accidents" or rather to poop on demand (which would likely reduce/prevent "accidents")?

    I just googled Sacral Nerve Stimulation and saw that it has a very good result for preventing INcontinence, but it wasn't clear that it helped one to poop on demand as I don't think that was looked at with that study.

    Hmmmm. Scott.
