I think I broke it

[Lise2021 15]

Like I don't know if I just gave birth or if I had anal sex with no mercy, but that was the hardest shit of my life literally! I tried pushing it back in and it wouldn't go back in, I tried pushing it out and it wouldn't come out. I tried rocking back and forth and side to side, the toilet seat almost broke like.... I am 16 days post op as of today I've been taking dulcolax, colace, and suppositories I can not go to the restroom without some stimulant and today I tried coffee. Everything from my stomach to my anus is hurting right now. I don't know if my butt will ever recover, it's still gaping. If this is how it's going to be then I need a refund on my stomach. My question is how long does it take to get back to normal and what other methods can i try to go to the restroom without complications? I've tried milk which worked briefly, I'm off pain meds, i get in my liquids, and I'm exercising. And preop my normal was everyday.

I needed Fiber. I now eat chili 3-4 times a week. Solved my problems.

The only thing that helped me was dulcolax and Miralax combined together with a lot of Water, and a heating pad on my lower back. It sucks. I'm 8 months out and I only go if I take dulcolax right before I go to bed.

I have the opposite problem, I'm 16 days post op too, and I haven't had anything that wasn't pure liquid, like clear with a little sediment. I hope you find relief and something to help you out.

Before I was sleeved on 12-14, I went at least once a day. For the first 10 days after, it was nothing but liquid. Now, I'm lucky if I go once a week. I'm not constipated, but I definitely am not going very often.

I had the same problem. I took stool softeners and fiber gummies. When I started eating and stopped drinking Protein shakes it improved. It was about 4 weeks post op. before it was "normal again"

That ruined my whole appetite. I think I need a bottle of tylenol and I'm going to try and drink some Protein and lay face down for recovery. Thanks guys!

My father used to say that for a severe case of Constipation what was needed was to eat at McDonalds,the trots were sure to follow.

Seriously you could try a brown cow which is milk of magnesia mixed with warm prune juice and butter. Or you might need lactose. But you will curse the day you take that.youll get a cherry red baboon butt from all the wiping, but bright side no more Constipation.< /p>

I suffer from chronic Constipation for years and I haven't even had surgery yet , I take dulcolax and sennoxen. I'm sure it will get worse when I have surgery but my body is used to the laxative so I am hoping I don't have any more constipation than I already have. I have tried all kinds of Fiber before and it never worked for me.

Lol toilet stool. I was so desperate to go at hospital and remembered Alan from 2andahalfmen. So i put the trash can in front of toilet n plopped my feet on up. Desperate times call 4 desperate measures. ???? Good luck. Hope gets better soon.
