a question post op

I am 2 weeks post surgery and wondering if having a more solid stool is normal. I have followed the dr.'s instructions faithfully, but wonder if the protein shakes are the reason.

Aviva: That could be it. Also - just body/food changes in general. I would recommend a Colace capsule once in a while just in case. I had one really *grim* constipation episode and I wouldn't care to repeat it. Dr. Nusbaum was my surgeon & he and Dr. Bilof are the *best*. P~ "Life is too short to wear sensible shoes!" "WWCHD?"

Thanks!
