sixbuttons 102 Posted September 23, 2013 I've had a BM everyday since the day after I got home. Sometimes more than once. I have no idea if that's normal or not, but that's what's happening for me. Nothing solid though so that's disgusting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skinnymolly 4 Posted October 20, 2013 My surgeon and NP suggested that I take milk of mag when I get home jut to get things going. I didn't have to cause I went before that, but they said it helps with going number 2 as well as tooting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kindle 8,667 Posted October 21, 2013 I haven't been sleeved yet, but had BM issues after my neck fusion surgery several years ago. Had the surgery on a Monday and didn't poo till the following Sunday. I was eating minimal and mostly soft stuff cause my throat hurt and taking Miralax everyday. That was the first surgery I ever had so didn't know what was "normal". I actually wasn't surprised, though because both anesthesia and pain meds will slow down your GI motility.

Kay__S 33 Posted October 21, 2013 Oh my goodness! I didn't realize that not going was that much of an issue! I guess I better work on this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
