Proton Pump Inhibitors, like: omeprazole (Prilosec, Prilosec OTC, Zegerid) lansoprazole (Prevacid) pantoprazole (Protonix) rabeprazole (Aciphex) esomeprazole (Nexium) dexlansoprazole (Dexilant)

I travel nearly weekly, starting at 3 weeks post op. The only real challenge is getting enough protein. I packed shakes and bars, so I could be sure I'd hit that macro. But every restaurant, every airport, convenience store, has good healthy options available. Sometimes you have to make some tweaks to dishes, but the basics of our diet is lean protein, and that is easy to find.

Definitely sounds like acid to me. Are you a PPI?

What, you had NO surgery complications?

I am 1 year post op, below my goal and in maintenance, with no complications whatsoever! -
No, not al all. I don’t even think that’s possible because it dissolves completely in liquid. I can’t imagine what could make it expand once it hits your stomach. Get the generic, like Walmart’s Equate, or the CVS brand etc. there is a huge price difference for the name brand, but identical ingredients in the store brand

I agree with using Benefiber. I added a couple of tablespoons to anything liquid with flovor, soup, protein shakes, crystal light, etc. I also took stool softeners (pills). Like you, I really wanted it to be gentle and natural, and not a run to the bathroom type of situation.

@Naughty Glitter Goddess Do you ever go to Winco? At least some locations have "grind your own" nut butters. -
Ahhh .... well I figured you had your reasons. If you ever do change your mind, I love my Mirena IUD. No cycle and no babies 🤣

No, that's crazy talk! 🤣 I got your back!

@GreenTealael Have you considered stopping your cycle altogether? Either through stacking oral bc, or a hormonal IUD, or depo (which I wouldn't recommend)?
