Well I had my RNY on the 20th. Glad to be home. Question, when does the watery diarrhea end?

UMMMM. Sad to say for me there is no happy medium. It is either horrible Constipation or watery diarrhea.

I will take the watery diarrhea over the constipation any day though.

I am two years post op.

I had to do Protein drinks 2 weeks preop and 4 weeks postop. I suffered BAD with Diarrhea. My Surgeon finally told me that I was Lactose Intolerant. Maybe this is what is going on with you. I also am afraid to take anything for diarrhea because then I get constipated or the other way around. One extreme to the other with me.

I had same operation the same day and haven't gone to bathroom yet. I just ate purée for first time so hopefully that will break the seal. LOL. I was taking a lot of pain pills for both my knees bone on bone and 3 bad discs. So I guess we'll see. I hope yours slows down. If your not too careful that could turn into dehydration.
