Hi tina, I know what you mean. My Dr. Told me to take benefiber. You can get the pills in orange flavor that taste pretty good or the kind you can put in your drink and is unflavored. He said you can drink1/2cup of prune juice every morning and that will do the job. I have to take something everyday and I still don't go everyday. Good luck,lori

I had been pretty regular post op but the No sugar added yogurt @ TCBY yogurt does the trick Its one of the great things I enjoyed on full liquids, and its a nice treat!!

i used to be a once a day guy... now it's every 2-4 days... taking benefiber... not constipated, though. just don't have to go as often. makes sense with how little i'm taking in...

I just discussed this at my 4 week appt. last night. I was told this is very common and I need not worry. I have had 3bm in 4 weeks. Those three only came when I took exlax the night before. UGH! You can try benefiber capsuls or powder. Smooth Move Tea Peppermint Tea Drinking more water
