The first 10 days post-op are THE worst...thing should get better at 10 days out, but constipation can be a thing for a while. Im 2 months out and only now am I getting to be somewhat normal. Post-op normal is now pooing once evey other or third day. Stick out this first time. All us post-op have been there. (but only now on the other side do you understand and can give support to others).
Many hugs and sympathy (especially for the gawd dern gas)!

I had surgery on a Monday didn’t go till Friday. I was so miserable. When I called the surgeon office they told me to take Mirilax but I was home alone and could not get to the store. I took a few sips of coffee which I would Not recommend. I was then in the bathroom the whole day. I was so relieved to go though I was ready to go to the hospital how much pain I was in and afraid my stomach was hurt. By the time my husband got home from work I was already went. They said it happens from all the pain meds and not enough water. I would definitely try something to make you go or it is just going t9 get worse. Hope you feel better.

I took a laxative before surgery to ensure everything was cleaned out. I finally pooped 8 days post OP and it was after 2 days of taking MOM plus 2 dulcolax, but now I poop daily. Nurse Practitioner said it was probably due to me starting vitamins too soon. Hope this helps! You're certainly NOT alone!

You can st
you can start there and if it doesn't work take a full dose. You will feel much better for sure. Good luck

I had the sleeve 5 days ago. Was so constipated and belly hurting. Had an icepack on all day. I wish the surgeon would have told me to take the Miralax before i called today. The nurse said the constipation is usually from pain meds and once they are out of your system and eating food it is better. I would definately try some if you didnt already. I am not really hungry. Constantly sipping on protein shakes or clear protein, gatorade, broth. Caffeine free tea, or jello and sf popsicles. I also froze some protein shakes in little containers to make it easier to get down. Seems to help.

I'm no help but this post makes me feel better. I'm in the same exact boat. My right side hurts so bad through to my back. I think the gas is out but I haven't pooped since before surgery. I'm swollen and grumpy lol.

I love sloths! Couldn't resist!

I'm 9 days post-op bypass. Yesterday I had my 1 week appt and I'm down 23 lbs [emoji4] I haven't been this weight in about 10 years. I'm already very excited that I went through with it!
I'm mostly meeting liquid and protien goals, walking my 10k steps/ day, and dr cleared me to ride my beach cruiser on flat trails.
