What's on Your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?
I hate suppositories... That being said... I have two boxes of them from early out... I wish I could send them to you!
Have you tried using Miralax regularly? I don't know what I'd do without it... I add it to my morning bottle of water... 24 ounces down on the way to work, and by the evening, all is right with the world. I do this about 3-4 times a week... works beautifully.

I'd forego the noatmeal and benefiber until things empty out. Chia bulks things up and so does benefiber...
Get some Miralax and have at least two capfuls in liquid per day.
I know I'm no doctor, but my surgeon's partner, who I see often instead of my surgeon, told me fiber when already constipated, often makes things worse. Maybe ask your PCP or surgeon?

I pour one capful in my 1st cup of morning coffee and I don't really notice a difference in viscosity, but maybe I'm used to it.
I think it really dissolves better in hot liquids. It seems to just completely disappear into my coffee.
Hope you start feeling better soon. I know it's difficult to deal with.

Yes adding fiber when you are already constipated can make things worse....

He's pretty resilient, and understands the gravity of the situation and why we are taking it so seriously, but he has been saying how much he misses his friends. What's been a saving grace is that the neighborhood boys he met like a week and a half ago have been coming around every day after they get home from school. They run around in the woods like maniacs, ride bikes and then jump on the trampoline until they collapse.
What did you get from netrition? Its been ages since I ordered from there. I may be due!
