Miralax, dolculax or a senna tea. I use a tea called Smooth Move. You drink it at bedtime and you should wake up to a BM.

Can you take that daily? Like right when you come home from hospital?

The laxatives I wouldn't suggest daily unless your dr tells you to. But the tea is all natural so it should be ok to take daily although I think it would be a waste...As Jenn stated above, we don't eat enough to have to go everyday. I found the tea at the supermarket and Walmart.< /p>

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
