cranialmalady 50 Posted March 16, 2013 Ok guys....I keep hearing about all this Constipation everyone seems to have had post op and I'm having watery very dark diarrhea poops like 3 and 4 times a day and I'm 4 days post op. What the heck? I attribute some of this to the super-sized bag of IV Vitamins I got in the hospital, but I'm on Clear Liquids only, so what gives! (My apologies for the vivid poo description.)

padlrd 183 Posted March 16, 2013 I've been thinking I was the only one I'm 5 weeks post op and I was doing this on pre op diet my dr said its cause of only fluids also I had my gallbladder out about 15 months ago and after that I had a lot of this to and took Welchol to help control but after my surgery the stopped that med but this week I skip a day and then I fell like I need to go but can't SO which is worst runny or nothing the way nothing feels I like runny SORRY for the honesty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cranialmalady 50 Posted March 16, 2013 Ahhhh....see I had my gallbladder out like 14 months ago and I had been taking Fiber every day to prevent diarrhea. I can't take the fiber since surgery....so that makes sense. You're a genius! Thank you thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
