Have Brown Liquid Faeces Coming Out, Have Alzheimer S History In Family. Can It Be Cause?

I was working on my homework and brown liquid faeces came out (I did not feel like I had to use the lavatory at all and my last bowel movement was midday today). I googled this and when people had clear liquid come out (mine was brown) it said they need to eat more fiber . I do not think this is my problem as I am a vegetarian and I do it the healthy way (I eat lots of fruits, vegtables and whole grains – not just processed junk). There is Alzheimer’s in my family, and I have seen my grandmother have accidents, and she did not know she did not have to go to the restroom. Is it possible that a 17 year old girl could have it? If so, what can I do to stop this from happening? If not, what is wrong with me. Please help me; I am so scared of this happening again (especially if it were to happen in public). My medical history: I have had no gastronomic problems. When I was 15, my liver was failing, but it regenerated so it is okay now. Currently I take 50 miligrams of Vyvanse and 20 milligrams of generic Adderall for ADD as needed.

Proctologist,  's  Response
hi, your problem seems to be either incontinence (loss of control on motions) of partial variety. It is advisable to get an 'ANO-RECTAL MANOMETRY' test done to find out the tone of your anal muscles as well as the sensation threashold of your rectum along with its capacity and the co-ordination between rectum & anus.
please add an isaphghaul powder (2-spoon with warm water once at night) to give a little bulk to your stools so they don't slip out unnoticed.
please get back once you get the results of the manometry so we can guide you with further treatment.
Alzimer's has noting to do with your problem.... be assured
take care
