I just wanna potty!!!

[texasteacher2013 4]

I still feel so much better when I'm even able to burp a little!!! Anyway to let this gas escape is fine by me!

I am having the same problem! I got rebanded on march 1st. I had diahrrea last week i guess cause of the gas. But i havent had a normal bowel movement for almost like 3weeks! Should I take a laxative or a stool softner? I just started eating mushy foods on monday and still no BM!

I was out running errands this AM and grabbed a small smoothie from McD. Mixed my Protein Powder inside, took about 5 sips and was stuffed. Get to show store to show shop, and it hits me!!! RELEIF!!! Thank the heavens!!!

I have always had problems down there, so it was no surprise how blocked up I was after surgery. I feel blessed I read about the Miralax on here. It has made my life so much better. And, I am amazed because I have used other laxatives in the past and only had cramping and pain. Miralax works well. Switching to Fiber supplement has me gassy, but helping with the regularity. So glad we are all so honest with each other on here

Tomorrow will make 1 week with the band. All I want right now is to have a BM!!!! I'm sorry if this is TMI for some, but I'm miserable!!! I move on to mushy foods tmrw and can't wait!!! How long after your band did you have a BM?

I know your pain I was miserable and could not even go pee, without the pain from the other. ask your Dr about Miralax or milk of magnesia. and good luck

Glad to see most of us are clearing out...it helps so much to be able to talk about these things with people that understand our pain. So glad I found this site.

I totally understand. I have to use liquid colace every day because of BM problems. Ask your doctor if there is something you can take. Good luck.

You may find that you need to be on a stool softener and Fiber powder every day. I add a non flavored powder fiber to my Water every day. You don't even know it is there, but you do know when you forget. You should be regular, but you will need help to get that way because we are now eating so much Protein and pretty much no fiber.
