Asm0108 11 Posted September 19, 2016 I'm having surgery tomorrow and have been doing great on liquids until today. I woke up with bad lower abdominal cramps. Anyone else experience this? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fd319 86 Posted September 19, 2016 I have surgery tomorrow too. My pre op diet caused me to get my period. Probably from some weight loss. I've also been getting some gas pains depending on what I have been eating. But my pre op diet isn't just liquid. Good luck!

KristenLe 5,979 Posted September 19, 2016 @@Asm0108 Are you drinking Protein shakes as part of your diet? They can cause Constipation. You could also be getting your period - which is common (unfortunately). How are you feeling now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asm0108 11 Posted September 19, 2016 Thank you for info. I think you are both right. Gotta love being a female. I just got over a bout of diverticulitis but this felt different. Good luck tomorrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
