Will Probiotics Help With The Incontinence?

I have MS & bowel incontinence. I have had colon cancer 21 years ago at which time I had 18 inches of my colon

removed. I was told that this was the part that took the water out of my bowel movement. I was diagnosed with

MS in 2003. Have recently become Gluten Free. Will probiotics help with the incontinence?
