Diarrhea

[SnowDaisy 73]

For the last 3 days I have had diarrhea. I am 12 days post op. Is this normal?

I had some diarrhea briefly immediately but put that down to all the medication, but this is horrible. I'm running to the toilet several times per day.

Anyone else have this?

Call your doc and also see if you can take some immodium or something like that. Sorry this is happening!

I had the same issue! Could not even leave the house... at my 1 week appt my surgeon moved me to the next phase of eating.. took care of that completely! Good luck... I am 2.5 months out and have not had that problem again! Good luck, just drink and drink and then drink some more!

It's ok, I did too. Doc said it's ok as long as it's not still black. The first bout is usually black blood from surgery. If your still having black diarrhea. They will do a simple blood test to see if it is new bleeding somewhere. . It happen to me and I was fine.

I had that issue for about a year post op. Went to several docs and they concluded it was the new me. My GI doc gave me some meds that slow down the GI tract and really help. Please speak to your doc.

I had my last Bariatric class yesterday with the RN and she told us this could and probably would happen
