You'll have to try different things until you find what works for you. I know want you're saying. (TMI) I thought I was going to have dig it out the first few times when I finally got to go. I now use a cap full of Miralax every day. Best of luck to you.

I can't say it enough. Smooth Move Herbal Tea. I drink a cup before bed every couple of days.Yogurt with Probiotics is also good. Jamie Leigh Curtis was right. Prunes, too.

I had this problem in the beginning as well. I couldn't go for some time after my surgery as well. I talked to the doctor and they told me to continue with the miralax. It's really the best option for you. Beware of stimulants because that will cause you pain. Hope you get some relief soon!

Ok so I had my surgery on Jan 7 and still have not pooped!!! I have taken Miralax the last 4 days, and it am getting so nervous for when it does come ( if it ever does) I am getting 90 gr of Protein, 64oz of Water, and all my Vitamins. The surgery was a breeze but I developed a Large hematoma that is very painful so I am still taking pain meds. What do I do???? I am normally an every day kinda girl. Is this normal, anyone have any advice?

take 4tbsp of Milk of magnesium followed by 20oz of water & relief will come within 24 hrs pain free & no diahrea effect.

try 4 tbsp of Milk of magnesium followed by 20oz of Water and relief will come within 24hrs no cramping.
