I have a personal question and need help

I am 4 wks post-op from a open RNY. I haven't been able to move my bowels in 6 days. I have a pain to the left of my incision and it's probably the constipation. I tried to drink some citricel but I can't drink a full 8 oz of water quick enough, it takes me about 45 min to drink a 8 oz glass of water. I don't like prunes either. Any suggestions?
