McButterpants 2,846 Posted November 26, 2013 Been having that issue myself. It was 5 days after surgery (last week) when I told my NUT that I hadn't poo'd. She freaked a little. I got a probiotic and some Metamucil and that got things moving. I went a couple of times the following 3 days, but since then, nothing. Now, I'm having that same feeling, but having a hard time getting things moving, if you know what I mean...I've tried the probiotic and Metamucil again, but nothing. Hubby suggested a cup of real coffee - I laughed at him, but he may have been onto something if it worked for you guys. 1 sophiepants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cubbies76 132 Posted November 26, 2013 For the first couple weeks after surgery it was a once every 3-5 day thing, which is normal seeing you aren't eating anything. I'm 6 weeks now and it's about every day or two, depending on how much Fiber I get through normal food and Water I get in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
