Ok--reading these really helps. Am I the last one not to have a BM? "Tooting" but nothing else. Thank God, I am not hungry (two protein drinks a day, two cups of soup, 64 oz water) but am still on 15 mg of liquid vicoden every 6-8 hours. The pain is to the left of my belly button--is this the port site? It hurts pretty bad when I move funny. My doc is on vacation for another week so I can't ask him. Sally
