Ok, I think all the suggestions are great but let me tell you my experience. About a year after surgery, I was having trouble going big time - very hard - could not get it out - had to dig if you know what I mean - got backed up and so sick. Turns out I had a pelvic hernia where the rectum would bloat out into my pelvic cavity instead of pushing it out. I mentioned my problems to a surgeon and he blew me off - then I mentioned it to my OB/Gyn and he figured it out. He had to go in through the back of the vagina to fix it (got a tummy tuck at the same time - insurance paid for everything) - happens from childbirth and rapid weight loss. Now I do much better and make sure I take extra fiber everyday. What I like to take is by Renew Life - Fiber Smart - they come in vegetable capsules that only need water to dissolve. Easy to take and helps much! Diona

OOOOOO! That sound icky! How do they find out? I had a CT scan both times in the hospital, can they see from those? I will ask my PCP as she is one heck of a doc! She will go the extra mile to rule ANYTHING out! Thanks Hon!

Fiber one cereal is great also ground flax seed, add it to yogurt or make muffins from the recipie on the package and add raisens. I also drink some smooth move herbal tea once a week or so. Hope this helps, its a daily struggle for most post ops because of all the protein we need. Deb

I eat the original Fiber One Cereal every day to stay regular. I also do 3 stool softeners at night (the ones without a laxative, just the softener). Its such a terrible problem! Good Luck to You!
