Hi guys!  New here. I am 2 weeks post op and struggling with constipation. I've been taking priobiotic since preop but my surgeon is now recommending that I up the strength due to the bathroom issues. I take a priobiotic with multiple strains and 4 billion whatevers.

Would love to hear what's working for people specific to probiotics. I am of course hydrating like crazy, using stool softeners and will be adding in fiber powder. Milk of Magnesia and Miralax have not worked so far.

Thank you so much!  Surgery recovery has been amazing otherwise and I am so grateful to have a community to reach out to!

Hi Riah,

When I was in the hospital last year for cellulitis and on heavy duty IV antibiotics, they had me take Bacid.  You can find it on Amazon.  I hope that helps!
