I had surgery on the 27th. I had a small BM last night--kind of a funny brown color with a lot of liquid. I was glad to cross that hurdle. I agree that fiber isn´t omething we should be doing at this stage. Janice
My doctors had directed me that if no bowel movement within 2-5 days upon release from hospital then take two tblspoons of milk of magnesia.
I would NOT recommend taking the benefiber given that you are only a few days postop.
