  • I had really bad diarrhea for my first 6 days postop. My doctor ended up recommending that I drink kefir (liquid yogurt) because of the good bacteria in it & it worked like a charm.

My guide says that Imodium is okay to take. Hope you feel better! If it doesn't get better within a day or two, I would call your doctor though.

I love Kefir, I drink a cup every morning. I'm sure the plain Kefir is best but I love the blueberry and today at the grocery store I saw chocolate kefir. Hmmm sounds interesting, might have to get some of that!

Immodium is a life saver.

I never tried the plain, but I love the blueberry, too. The raspberry & the cherry are also good. The pomegranate was a bit too tart for me, so I added a little Black Cherry Mio & it was perfect.

I'm just over 4 months out and I'm having the opposite problem. I feel like I'm living on laxatives and Miralax. I'd rather be pooing my brains out!

Thank you so much I just picked up Imodium lets hope it works I will try that yogurt tonorrow

I, too, had diarrhea the first week. Now, 4 weeks out, I'm sitting here trying to drink a bottle of magnesium citrate. There just doesn't seem to be a happy medium, does there?
