Should I Worry

[Tattoodmom 6]

So my surg was mon 3/19 and since i've been home im fine gettin in fluids and Protein but have had some serious bowel issues. I can not stop going and its super loose(trying to save u from graphics but ultra mud water)...im not dehydrated. All mucus membranes are moist and I urinate fine. Should I worry now or later?

I am almost 5 weeks post op and my first two weeks were spent running to the bathroom!!! Once u increase ur Protein it will subside....hang in there...it gets much better!

Thanks bedhead. I guess im worried about leaks. I am headed by to work Tuesday and can not run out of the room every 20mins. I am happy with how everything is going but not happy with this part.lol

I never had the runs, but today, for the first time in my life I was constipated! WTHeck!!! That's some miserable stuff!!! I had been slacking on my water--no more! I'm completely grossed out!

Wow I had my surgery on the 16th and didn't have a BM until the 21st.

I think sometimes meds can make you bottle up. It took me a few days too
