Hey linda,  I hate it when that happens!!  My suggestion for you is to call the surgeons office and see if they can recommend a different laxative and explain that  that one is not working for you.  See what they say.  Either that or maybe eat something that used to give you the runs!!  LOL    You just never know whats going to work.  Good luck,  let us know what works.  It may help someone else too.    Eldy

 Calling Dr. Pohl is a good Idea.  I know with me he told me to take two fiber choice a day and it works.   Everyone is differant so It is a good Idea to call 1st.  GOOD LUCK.
