I had that problem and still do some. My surgeon recommended Miralax daily after I got cleaned out. It helps. Just mix it in a drink and you can't taste it

Thanks Beth even sounds better than my plan.

I am on two stool softners a day and if I don't go at least everyother day I have to take milk of magnesia. ugh but it works. I may try the mirlax next week after my to work trips.

I did 2 days of M of M and then tried the Miralax. I even broke down and had a 1/2 vup of coffee and still nothing! Which stool softeners do y'all use? I'm not exactly in pain but I feel sort of "backed up". does that make sense?

I love freebies and it so happens on the day I was complaining about not going to the bathroom, 2 Citrucel samples came in the mail! They work great and 2 a day keeps me regular.

Mine are colace. But you can get the generic stool softeners at many pharmacies and Walmart. They keep the stool soft but do not make you go. Fluid is key to bowel movements. Warm tea or broth usually helps me. I usually have a bowel movement every couple days after three I began to worry. Miralax is a great product also just take a dose daily.
