Suggest Treatment For Weak Bowels And Need To Pass Stool After Eating Food

My Aunt of 87 years old is having bowel issues. Approx. 3 years ago she had a bowel prolaps which was surgically corrected. At that time the surgeon stated her bowel muscles were weak, however her having the surgery they have become weaker. It seems almost every time she eats she needs to eliminate immediately. Needless to say this is interfering with her life and going out. She is taking Immodium daily. Her new Dr. wants to put her on a Probiotic, however she has tried this is the past which didn t help. We have spoken to the surgeon who states there is nothing more he can do. Any suggestions?
