Passing gas and BM after surgery?
Oh yeah, when you think it's gonna be a fart... just beware. You might wanna go in the bathroom just in case.

I don't remember if I was passing gas in the hospital or not. I was on morphine. I remember very little.
I do recall having the worst diarrhea ever the day after I came home. So I guess day three? A couple times I did not quite make it to the bathroom in time. Talk about unpleasant.
