Did Anyone have bowel blockage or intestinal issues after surgery



Recommended Posts

I have had a doozy of a time since my initial sleeve surgery in 2016. After some complications, I had a revision to bypass last year, then another hospital stay this year for a bowel blockage. Right now I am still experiencing intestinal issues and I am scheduled for a colonoscopy in December. If I just drink Protein Shakes my tummy is fine. No Constipation, no bloating I feel great. As soon I eat anything remotely resembling a real meal my tummy complains. Anyone else have this issue. Thanks

Also consider asking about medicinal laxative teas and if you can have them occasionally. Get well soon !

Thank you. I do Smooth Move tea, and my doctor also put me on Linzess. Hoping for a long term cure 🙂

Don't meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy, and taste good with catchup!
