Im Back and better than ever
First of all i just want to say MY NAME IS DONNIE LOL NOT MARC and thanks for all of the support from everyone out there. Because i was able to prepare my body so well before surgery the dr said they way i bounced back was awesome, and i will do just fine. All of the fluids are staying down and i have found the sweet spot where enough is enough without getting sick. The only post op question i have is benefiber was suggested to me but i take the vitamins from the drs office so until i talk with them tomorrow should i use it or not because i have had no BM since i went in for surgery. I last ate on monday and last BM was day of surgery so im not sure if i am suppost to go at all or not because of the fluids only going in? Again i m doing great i wi**** was not so icy so i could go walking but im sure ill find a way, lol right now im doing stairs for the time being. Thanks and good luck to all.

The BM took a bit of time for me - wasn't "normal" for some time after surgery either. Keep drinking those fluids - they should help too.
Keep up the good work :)

Hi Donnie! Glad to hear that you are back and feeling great! I too had an easy recovery.
As far as the Benefiber goes... I didnt take anything after surgery and didnt have a BM for a while then all of a sudden I had really bad lower abdomen pain and called the office. I spoke with Dr Giovanni and she told me that it was constipation and I should take Benefiber and Colace. Benefiber did the trick! If you do take it make sure that you get the sugar free one.
