Ok this is what I am wandering the bathroom used to rank after being on the porclin throne but now after surgery I make myself gag ...... Am I the only one?

What do you mean "you make yourself gag"? Are you saying that you force yourself to gag as in throw up?

i threw up a few times, but i never forced myself to do it.....i overate and that made me want to throw up.....becareful you could hurt yourself, plus why do you have the need to force yourself to throw up?:scared0:

No blowing up the bathroom means stinky I don't throw up

if you're on the post op liquid diet, it's very common.They say liquids in liquids out.

After you're on solid food, people tend to go the other direction.

Please clarify. If you didn't mean that YOU force yourself to gag and that since the surgery you find you gag, I gagged for nearly 3 months maybe more, every morning when I brushed my teeth and/or gargled. Just the Water hitting my tongue made me gag and dry heave. So far not one doctor could give me any explaination for it ...troublesome when surgeon, PCP, gastro, or ENT(2)---are clueless.

If you are forcing yourself to gag I strongly suggest you stop before you do harm to your body.

he means that before surgery, his sh*t stank, but now it's so smelly after surgery it makes him gag!

i think it might be because liquid stools tend to be smellier. i agree with a poster above me, i think it will change after you eat more solid foods!

get a gas mask in the meantime! :thumbup:

Oh...ew...got it.

LOL Thank you Big! You beat me to that explanation for LAN. I knew right from the beginning what TB was talking about and was hoping some one else would clear it up for her before I did in just about the same terminology that you used!

@ TB- I cant tell you when it will get better post-op cus I'm not there yet but what I can say is Good Luck with that! Get some strong candles and even stronger air freshener and put both in arms reach for time being! :wink0:

I sympathize with your situation, yes it does appear to be a more potent non-lethal way of attacking myself. You should do what I do, take a fan into the throne room and blow the gas out into areas where it makes other people gag. Ha

Yes, I am almost 6 months out and even my gas is dangerous now...LOL!!!

I think in my case it has to do with all the atkins protein bars I consume. The more of them I eat, the more gas I have and the worse everything smells...LOL!

If you look at the label of ingredients and it contains sucralose aka splenda---that is what is producing the noxious gaseous expulsions. I refuse to eat any artificial sweetener. Stevia, (brand I like is "Stevia in the raw) works GREAT to sweeten anything and there are quality Protein Bars out there which are free of genetically altered industrial substances that taste sweet.

OK no offense intended here LADIES, but this is a MAN's room. I'm sure every guy who came in here totally understood what TBTROY ment when he said gag and rank in the same sentance. I find it pretty interesting how a guy asks a question in this part of the forum and 20 women are right there with the answer, be it stinking up the bathroom or how big is Mr. Winky after you lose the weight.

Oh duh I hadn't even noticed the sign: "The Man Room".. and I didn't even get it! LOL...sorry, I'm gone...woosh-----------

The dog gets a lot of blame in my house.

I've always wondered what goes on in the ladies room. Two by two like Noah's Ark and seems there are always glasses, blackberrys, bracelets, rings, etc being found or lost. What do they do in there?

DallMike- how did your surgery go with Dr. Nick? I am getting mine in a few hours from him. I am very optimistic as he has a great reputation. Any complications for you thus far?
