I had my band done on Wed... and did not go by yesterday, took the MOM and went like crazy... hope this helps... Lisa

My doctor told me no laxatives so I take Benefiber. I have been taking it over other day, twice a day, to keep me regular. It works really well and helps make the experience not painful.

Thanks Leesalu, I finally broke down and called my Dr. at 6 a.m. He told me to take Duccolax and Duccolax suppositories. I was able to move my bowels a bit!
