Topic: RE: Constipation
the differences with our surgeons is amazing!! mine said he wouldnt tell me any medication to use for constipation....if i wanted to be poop free...drink 64 ozs or more a day...and things will move out fine.
i have been getting 64+ ozs a day..and havnt really had problems since then.
you guys are lucky though...seems like they have great aftercare...i can only call my surgeon during business hours. itsucks.

I guess I am doing alright. Since surgery I got to visit the er twice...was admitted once...I got to enjoy about a week of pureed foods....and now I am back on liquids because my stoma is swollen. (dont do pepperoni's they dont do well)
as for weight loss...i started at 326 day of surgery and i am currently at 288. YAY!! I am having to find new homes for all my size 26/28 clothes!
Lovin it!! Wish I could go back to pureed.....but other than that..doing pretty well.
Oh yeah...almost forgot, my B12 was really low, so instead of sub. i am taking injections now!
CONGRATS FEB. BUDDIES!! LETS KEEP THIS GOING!! GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU!!

Benefiber has NO taste. Seriously! I mix it in water and cannot see or taste it.

I THINK YOUR FROTHING. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE MUCOUS PRODUCED DURING FOOD BREAK DOWN BACKS UP INTO THE ESOPHAGUS AND CLEAR VOMIT IS PRODUCED. THIS SHOULD RESOLVE BY THE 3RD MONTH POST OP
