butterfly_gal 151 Posted June 10, 2013 So how does one lose almost two pounds in about an hour? The non glamorous way of course! Thank you to suppositories, I am not full of crap anymore. I have been having horrible Constipation over the last week. Haven't had a bm for six days. Finally gave up and ran to walgreens to get the suppository and it worked, thank god. I guess benefiber is going to be in my daily routine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicolanz 1,484 Posted June 10, 2013 What did you use? I'm having a terrible time since my gallbladder surgery! Help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
butterfly_gal 151 Posted June 10, 2013 What did you use? I'm having a terrible time since my gallbladder surgery! Help! What finally worked was the dulcolax suppository. I was taking peri colace for several days, but it didn't help. I hope it gets better for you. I know it sucks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never had this issue as I was having normal bm for the first week and 1/2 post op but I also haven't gone in about 5 days so ill probably try this. I'm afraid it will hurt lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm afraid it will hurt lol I did it today at like 5pm and had my bm by 6. My guts are cramping still, but not as bad as earlier. I would definitely do it when you're home and near a toilet and have lots of time. I used it as a last resort because I had so much discomfort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miss Bean 10 Posted June 10, 2013 Don't wait to long without going for a bm. I know from experience it can cause you a lot of pain. If I don't go in two days I take something. Last month I lost 5lbs once I finally went and it took me a couple days to finally get rid of all of it. The stool can become impacted and then there's trouble. Good luck girls.
