Hi all I have had, so embarrassing...a leaking bowel since day two after my op. I am now day five.. I go to sleep and I wake up and it has just leaked out of me...I don't feel like it was after I have passed wind or anything.. I have been very careful with anything that goes in my mouth. I am only taking in 10 grams of protien powder at meal. Not eating any sugar or fat..mostly just pain meds, Water, a few ounces of black Decaf tea with a tiny bit of skim milk. chewable vitamins. Ect... Please don't tell me this is normal...running out of pads and self esteem..any clues guys....please......also I have an off and on temp since day two of surgery...makes me shake n chiver

Wow damn girl... Idk what to say. You haven't mention anything strange. I think you should buy adult diapers incase accidents at night but I would call the surgeon about this. I have t heard if this. I got the vomiting for a month it stoped then at 3 months vomiting 1 week till they found out my stomach closed up & I wasn't. Able to keep food down at all. Call the surgeon ASAP liquid poop is dehydration

Call surgeon...primarily because you have a fever. I had back surgery, was on antiobiotics beforehand.and they didn't think it was possible...it is, it got MUCH worse, make that call!! Infections can be picked up many ways and are unfortunately normal, but you need to treat them...

Are you taking Fiber? My nut has me on the Benefiber equivalent twice a day. Fiber supplements actually help get rid of diarrhea but definitely call that Dr!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
