Been REALLY sick lately...

I've been just a tad past "blah" lately.  No matter what I eat, I feel sick - kind of like when you start to get the flu.  Even cottage cheese or yogurt makes me ill and those have been my "lets soothe the pouch" foods since surgery.  Only able to go #2 about once a week and it's about a 2-3 hour process once I take Milk of Magnesia.  Tummy cramping and blah-ness from hell - - REALLY tired and could give a crap about anything. I'm also HUNGRY all the dang time. I can still only eat small (tiny) portionss 1 cup or less depending on density but it seems I'm hungry every hour or 2.

Went in last Tuesday for a ct scan and blockage and stricture was ruled out. Tuesday at 11:45 they are going to check my gallbladder. I really don't know whats going on but I know I don't want to feel so sick anymore =(

Has anyone been through this? What did it end up being with you? Any suggestions?

Sounds to me like you could be feeling yucky from being constipated.  Once a week is not enough!  Have you tried other remedies besides MOM?  I would get a little more aggressive and try to "clean out" and then see how you feel!

I've been trying and things are moving now (a little) MoM ..about 4 stool softeners a day (per dr.s orders) and I also have some form of full sugar juice each day, usually apple because it's a natural "make ya poop" thing for me.

I've had allergic reactions to most fruits in the past, havent had that kind of reaction for about a year but I'd rather not have my throat close up haha... I wish i wasnt scared to try it because i know they would work SO much better!!
