Constipation.... What to take?

I add a half a cupful of Miralax to my protein shake every morning and I take two Fiber Gummies daily.

Are you still in a lot of pain two weeks post surgery?  The pain meds definitely can cause constipation issues.  I didn't take any pain meds once I came home from the hospital.

If you're not drinking enough fluids, that will also cause constipation.  It's really important, especially after surgery, to get all your fluids in daily.  

You may need a fleet enema if it isn't moving.

Once I started having harder bowel movements, I added a serving of prunes each evening to keep everything moist.  I also include a minimum 2 litres of fluids, veggies and fruit to my intake.

Canned spinach with lemon did the trick with me.
