Bomberchick 1 Posted March 21, 2016 Constipation is very common for us. I take a probiotic twice daily and I take a dose of Metamucil every morning. They seem to help a lot. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted March 21, 2016 Metumucil is the best because it's adding fiber to your diet rather using a laxative. You HAVE to drink a lot of Water. If you're constipated now, you may need a fleets enema to get cleared out and Metiumucil will keep things moving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZoeyBear 64 Posted March 24, 2016 Was in ER with this problem 2 weeks after surgery! Since then, I take a stool softener every night, probiotic every morning, and for 3 months after my ER visit, I took Miralax in a glass of juice every morning. It's been a year and no more problems!

Fame 53 Posted March 24, 2016 Dulcolax is my go to. I try to do it at least once a week. Works fast and cleans you out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1SlimmerMe 122 Posted March 24, 2016 My family doctor prescribed Linzess for me. I still take stool softeners twice daily. The Linzess is for when those aren't working well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ridingrae 61 Posted March 26, 2016 Magnesium. Try a powder called Calm. I still have it after 1 year. I think it'll always be something to be mi full of. Also daily stool softener. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
