Sorry if it's tmi..

For the past week I've felt bloated and I hadn't had a BM. Tonight at dinner I had the intense urge to buckle over, I had the worst stomach pain for about 10 minutes, so I went to the bathroom. I swear I must've eliminated at least 5lbs of waste. It's like what I had for dinner decided to kick start my bowels and get them moving again. Now I feel soo much better and the bloating is gone. This is the 2nd time that this has happened since surgery. Has anyone else experienced this?

I haven't yet. I was sleeved 1/15/13 but my dr said its a possibility to become constipated. She suggested miralax to get things moving. I'm having gas pains now, I don't want Constipation ones later. I would say if you feel bloated/backed up for more than a day or 2 try some miralax. That's my plan anyway.
