When Did You Have A Bm Post Op?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Monday and on Wednesday my doc told me that every day I don't have a bm for the next few I need to take a suppository in order to keep my bowels working! It isn't fun but it works!!

Beware...I had a very nasty experience with compaction about 2 weeks out! It was like giving birth...so do yourself a favor and start taking a stool softener and some Fiber daily! Good luck! :blink:

10 days after surgery. And going into week seven, only one more time since surgery until I took matters into my own hands and took several laxatives in order to get some results.

No problem guess I'm lucky had bm day after surgery . I always did what the nurses said walk walk walk and will move on out and it worked for me.

I'm almost 3 months out and I still haven't had a solid nor an I regular, the surgeon said its not al since we eat so little. If they aren't worried about it then I guess I'm not!!!

I'm running out to get something now! I was fine after surgery, but since I've been on puree I'm having the hardest time going and this afternoon my back started to bother me. I think fiber and/or softener will do the trick. I wonder if I'm allowed prune juice-unsweetened, maybe. I'm trying to eat veggies but when your entire meal is 1/4 cup-it's hard to get any quantity in with most of it being Protein.< /p>

So actually I manged to have a BM this evening. It was crazy awesome. Of course it was liquid....I liken it to silt. It was strange but lovely all at the same time. I made a joke to my family that I've never been so excited to have a BM in my life and I felt like a brand new person lol :)
