I’m 7 months out from surgery and I’ve finally figured out something that works for me. I drink Metamucil every day, Miralax every day and have added 7 prunes. I’ve had a TERRIBLE time and used every method under the sun to help with the pain. Enemas, stool softeners, laxatives, laxative teas, milk of mag... nothing has worked this well. I’m finally seeing progress with all three and making sure I get over 100 oz of water a day. Good luck everyone!
