DUMP

Okay guys, I finally arrived home yesterday.  I only have one problem.  I have not had a crap since March 27th.  My dr. did not want to give me anything for it.  I just started soft foods today...who thought tuna would taste so good!  Any ideas to help with consipation?

When did you have your surgery?

March 28th for the first, April 2nd for the second.  I know that with the second he looked though my intestines to ensure I had no infection.  I was told whenever they tough your intestines they basically shut down.  I have had to do walking to keep the gasses flowing.  It is funny how excited I would get when i first started to fart!

Things should start moving soon. Just keep on walking, and keep on top of your fluid intake.

That is a very long time to go without a bowel movement.  Hope there isn't an obstruction of your bowel. 

I had to go get LACTULOSE. You have to ask for it at your drug store. They store it in the pharmacy behind the counter. Worked really well for me. Good luck! ~Cheryl

I sucked on gummy bears in the beginning!!

Now I eat a piece of red licorice everyday to help with the outs!

licorice really helps? I've been on metamucil daily, like 4 tsps a day and it's still a struggle?

Well Yippy It finally happened .  It was not alot but at least it was something!  Thanks for all the suggestions

Well I am glad everything all came out all right!  LOL.  I have been the totally opposite!  Burning ring of fire!  LOL.
