Hi I am 16 days post op and im still having yellow runs. Ewww ...I have no stomach pains or fever. So I don't think I have C diff. I have to give a stool sample tomorrow. But has any one went through this situation? It doesn't matter what color I eat....it will still be yellow. Sorry I have to be a little graphic. ~RIVARAT~

I went to Fredmyers. But im sure walmart would have it to. It was called Accuflora probiotic. There was several to choose from. By the second day I could tell it was helping so much. I would take 2 a day before eating. Usually I took them at breakfast time. Doesn't really matter which small meal to take them with. Let me know how it goes.

Hello All, Ok gave a stool sample but I should know next week if theres anything wrong. But I will say if your having the same issue "runaways" go get some digestive enzymes over the counter. That really helped tons! Today I actually pushed out a softie. WHEW! So today was the 3rd day on digestive enzymes.

Im eating soft mushy solids. Just small amounts of course.

Or possible bacterial infection. My lower back has started hurting as well.

Yes I sure will let you know what the out come is. Never in my life have I ever wanted a firm bm...lol. I have no gallbladder but I was told to get some digestive enzymes in the mean time. This should be interesting getting the sample.

Yes I have had the same issue! I was sleeved on 12/11. I spoke with my surgeon about it on my 1 week post op appt. He said I was the second one that week complaining of sleep issues. He told me to try melatonin. It helped a little but I'm still restless. I hope by the time I go back to work I'm sleeping better.

9 days post op and visited the toilet many, many times today. And my stomach is growling and carrying on with noises. No pain just wondering if any one has the same problem? -

~Dr. Peter Billing Edmonds, Wa ~ I had my surgery on 12/11 by Dr. Peter Billings. Pudget Sound Surgery Center. However, he also has privileges at Evergreen Hospital in Kirkland. I had an awesome experience! They have just been such a blessing in my life. My sleeve was done at Evergreen Hospital. Wonderful staff that made you feel very comfortable. Highly recommend Dr. Billing. -

I think I couldn't get comfortable enough. Yeah getting up and down was pretty sore. I'm 4th day out and feel pretty good. I heard it only gets better:) -

I've kind of spaced my pain meds out more. Mine says every 4 hours but I try to go 6 hours. My plumbing is doing ok both ways. Lol. My stomach woke me up making all kinds of noise. Not hungry but she was just noisy. -

Mine was in my upper chest but went away. I was sleeved 12/11. I tried some cream of mushroom soup a few teaspoons. Went down ok. But not hungry. Sipping more water. -

Hi, I had mine done on 12/11 and I'm experiencing now a lot of grumbling and growling from stomach. I'm not hungry. Slight headache but gone within an hour. Is this normal the growling?
