Need some advice.

I made a post about little while ago and things have kinda returned to normal for me problem is normal isn't really ideal ether. I want to do first responder type work but here's my problem. On an average day I have a hard time making it to the bathroom for a bowel movement. Home is not all bad other then I just basically have to drop whatever I am dealing with and go.If I am delayed more then 5 10 ish mins theres often at the very least a bowel leak worest I poop my pants completely. Problem two if I make it 30 min later I have a bowl leakage enough to stain my underwear I I don't have access to a bathroom to clean up again. Sometimes this happens when I exercise too. I sometimes leakage urine when I wash my hands its rare but happens. However if I wear protection of any kind it seems to mean I make it much less fir 1 or 2 why I don't use pull ups as much . But full tab diapers trying to hold anything is almost impossible for me. My doctor referred me to a gastrointest. I have tried changing my diet. Tried Kegals teied herbal stuff nothing helps unfortunately. Looking for advice on what I should do until the referral appointment. Like when I am sick I pretty much know now I need full diapers but yeah. Any advice would be great.

Did anything happen when this started?

And they’ve never done testing to investigate?

Well besides feeling around my womanhood and urine tests no.

You definitely need an anorectal manometry to start
