Will Metamucil Fiber capsules be a problem post-op?

I take Metamucil fiber capsules for my chronic "problem" and find they work wonderfully for keeping me regular. With my high protein, high iron diet after surgery, I anticipate having more problems with constipation and am wondering if I can get these large pills down and if they'll be absorbed the same way with all the re-routed plumbing. Anyone use these or have a comment? Thanks!!
