Nykee I AM RIGHT THERE WITH YOU. I use to go all the time from everything but now I go like normal people do. As far as the pee I am up 2 or 3 times a night to go.

Bandman I hope you got some help by now. But is sounds like you are at the enema or suppoistory stage and then take stool softeners in the future to avoid this again. If you don't have anyone to do it I will volunteer my services.

You are one grand lady! He didn't take you up on it yet, but let it get bad enough, right?

Nah, bandman, the milk of magnesia will fix you right up. Good luck!!!

Day five was the magic number for me. You've had some serious trauma...your body is rebelling for a bit. Check in with your doctor before you do anything is what I was told...and then the problem sort of solved itself.

They said that it could take several days...even more if you had the bypass.

Hang in there!

I still have that problem occasionally. I use glycerine suppositories. They work in like 20 minutes.

Hi

I had the same problem and took a dose of Milk of Magnesia in a glass of Water. You need to take it in water to have it work really well.

Good luck!

I am on a prescription for IBS now (zelnorm), Should I continue to take it after the surgery?

I don't know...check with your doc to be sure. Maybe start a new thread and ask? You'll get better reples than on this thread, I'll bet.

Keep up the good work, bandman! :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
