Ok guys....I keep hearing about all this constipation everyone seems to have had post op and I'm having watery very dark diarrhea poops like 3 and 4 times a day and I'm 4 days post op. What the heck? I attribute some of this to the super-sized bag of IV vitamins I got in the hospital, but I'm on clear liquids only, so what gives! (My apologies for the vivid poo description.)

Ahhhh....see I had my gallbladder out like 14 months ago and I had been taking fiber every day to prevent diarrhea. I can't take the fiber since surgery....so that makes sense. You're a genius! Thank you thank you!

Your welcome my surgeon said as long as it isn't to much like all day as long as your eating and drinking its ok now sometimes I skip a day and wish I didn't
