Is it ok to take a fiber supplement at 2 weeks post op?

Before surgery i was taking two fiber gummies a day to help with irregularity. Now, post op I'm not irregular I don't go at all! Do you all think it would be alright to restart my fiber gummies? I will probably call the Dr or nut tomorrow but thought some of you might have experience with this issue. Thanks for any info!

    I use benefiber every day. I mix mine with water. Since they are chewables, you shouldn't have a problem.
