Tried milk of magnesia last night to get things moving after not going all day. I'll be fool if I am going to deal with all this pain AND be constipated. Almost made myself puke. It was close. But after an hour or so I felt much much better. Seems the tears phase is upon me. Crying for no reason. Fun times.

Yes me too I keep crying for the littlest things. I haven't had w bowel movement neither, did yoyr doctor recommend milk of magnesia? I hope you feel better as well.

Hi how are you feeling? I am walking but I am suffering from gas and pain. How are you handling the Water.< /p>

I had complication of low hematocrit so instead of going home in 48 hours I had to stay till 3 days. They gave me a unit of blood. It took until 10 pm so I got home Friday 230 pm. I feel worse at home than in the hospital. Probably because dog and wife expect me to pick right up.

Yeah, they recommended milk of magnesia. But it was tough with this little pouch to get it all in. Probably what made me sick. I think I will try taking some Probiotics along with my Vitamins. Can't have yogurt for another 3 weeks.

Hi everyone' date=' I'm still in hospital. I just could not drink and my pain was unbearable. My doctor ordered a cat scan and within a hour I was back in operating room. There was a slight blockage on my intestine, 3hr surgery in top of Tuesday's surgery and yall know I am in crippling pain here. I can't do anything without assistance. I can't stop crying, what did I do to myself! Now they said if I can do all the things necessary I can go home Monday.[/quote']

I'm so sorry to hear this! I hope you r feeling better! This surgery can take a lot out of u and make you question why you did it. But in all reality you know why you did. So you've got to push/pray through the pain because you will get a little better each day! I consider myself a work n progress! Keep us posted!

I had my surgery August 27, 2013, and I'm still in the hospital!!!! I now had a total of 3 surgeries and the last one left me with 2 drainage tubes in my stomach and barely able to walk. The pain I have experienced is unbearable and my body underwent a battle that I was not expecting. I do truly pray of you are much better and I eventually catchup. ..
